My favorite list as below:
Even though it was cold outside, we still craved for desserts. We stopped by at Sulbing Korean Dessert Cafe.These two bowls of snow ice were absolutely GREAT ! The shaved ice were soft like snow. I chose on mango and tiramisu toppings. The mango snow ice came along with pale yellow cubes, Bey said the cubes were butter, I said the cubes were cheese. Anyway, the cubes were flavorful and creamy , perfect match on the fruity snow ice.

Craving for BBQ ? This grilled pork is $$$ expensive but it's a must try. It is 黑豚家(明洞店), located underground at Myeong Dong. The black pork is known to originated from Jeju Island. There were not a lot of side dishes, but their pork were really really GOOD !
We also had 陈玉华一只鸡 at Dongdaemun. Basically, the whole chicken, potatoes and green onions were cooked and boiled in a pot of clear soup. It looked simple but it tasted AWESOME. You can also add in kimchi or spicy sauce based on your preference. Later on, when you are almost done, you can add in noodles and rice cake and cook it with the remaining soup.
When we were walking around Insadong Street, we spotted this dumpling logo, and gave it a try. Dumpling is known as Mandu in Korea, it is a perfect snack dish. We ordered a platter that had both steam and fried dumplings, the ingredients in it were minced pork, vegetables and also tang hoon.
After tired walking at Myeong Dong, we stopped by OSULLOC cafe. This cafe serves a range of green tea food from dessert, hot tea, smoothies, parfait. It was a relaxing cafe !
Let's continue with
Day 7
We departed early in the morning to Nami island by taking ITX train from Cheongyangni station to Gapyeong station. We then took the shuttle bus from Gapyeong station to Nami island ferry station. It is a big island, where you can spend your whole day here, bicycling, strolling, eating.

Beautiful autumn leaves at Nami island; but too bad; people mountain people sea. Bey said there were more people than trees |
One of the tourist volunteered to help us for a photo. Greatly appreciate! Winter sonata shooting spot - checked . |
When we were there, there were none Jinko leaves on tree. But, it was still very romantic to have the right person with me >.< |
Look! What's Bey doing? He was shaking a metal box vigorously ! |
Dada! It was a bento box with kimchi, rice and egg. It tasted super duper good!!! After we shaked it, look how well all the ingredients were mixed. Must try this at Drama Cafe. |
Morning calm garden had less crowd. It was a peaceful garden. |
In the late evening, the weather started to change gloomy and chilly. But, it was just nice to have our day trip ended here. |
It was the last day of our trip; we started shopping at Myeong Dong. I am not too fancy about cosmetics or skincarse; but, I still bought some basic ones from Innisfree and Etude House. We also tried a couple of street foods.
I think this is the most special one - egg bread ! It was served hot, fluffy soft bread with an egg inside. :p |
Of course, must take a photo with this huge line bear. Grin widely :) |
At night, this place was so happening. Even more food stalls, even more crowd, even more music, endless night... |
Hope to see you again, Seoul! Tataz.
