Seoul Diary 2020: Delicious Eats
The food scene in Seoul covers a huge range, from ugly-delicious 부대찌개 (budae-jjigae, army stew) to carefully crafted Scandinavian food served inside a traditional hanok house. Every meal leaves some kind of impression. Below is a visual roundup of my favorite spots from my last trip, this past February, with a longer list at the end. Also worth knowing: CatchTable is genuinely useful for booking reservations at spots that would otherwise be hard to get into.
