Tradition combined with modern chic

This is a Korean teahouse with a modern twist. They produce traditional Korean desserts but add a few modern ingredients such as milk, dried blueberries, cranberries and pecan nuts.

Instead of using refined sugar, confectionery is sweetened with jujube and other fruits.

The menu includes classic Korean teas and desserts but also uncommon ones, such as North Korean style Injeolmi (이북인절미), flower-shaped Gaeseong Yakgwa (개성약과), and deep-fried Tteok (주악).

Prices are a bit higher, but that's normal for Gangnam... Also, some beverages come with tiny snacks.

Food and drinks are served in old-fashioned tableware made of wood, ceramics, stone or Korean bronze.

The interior features Korean wooden architecture in combination with brick walls - a mix of old and new. There are Western-style chairs as well as traditional floor seating.

Overall, the impression of food and interior is traditional yet modernized. Here, you can enjoy Korean desserts in an elegant, lofty atmosphere in Gangnam!

They produce on location and you can watch them making everything, it's fascinating!

Pros: Good food, vegan options, Nice atmosphere
