Food in Hongdae
I found a place that makes Cuban sandwiches. I was happy to find a place that makes the sandwiches in Korea. It is located near exit 7 from Hongdae station.
Afterwards, I headed to Sulbing near exit 9. It was packed and filled with people. It was a Sunday evening so I would not expect anything different. The dessert was great. It hit the spot.
Situated on the outskirt of Hongdae is Cafe de Rabbit. It is located near exit 3. They have rabbit shaped snacks, alcohol, coffee and fresca. It is four floors. They have a outdoor terrance to enjoy while relaxing. It is far enough that you are not in the middle of the nightlife. But close enough to still go to a club or hop back into the scene.

Seoul and seoulmate searching in Hongdae
#seoul
Hongdae shopping street has very lively atmosphere. It was quite crowded, filled with both Koreans and foreigners. You can do many things there, shopping, strolling, trying some food, or even watching performances as there are a lot of street musicians and dancers there.
For me, it is one of the best places for shopping and eating. The street is very long with different vibes during the day and at night. Great atmosphere! Many shops and styles available for everyone with reasonable price and tax refund available in some stores. You’ll need to spend a couple hours exploring the shops and alleyways as there are some nice hidden gems around the place. It’s great for affordable shopping and for food & beverage. Probably the hottest place is Seoul in terms of nightlife. Clubs, restaurants, bars, coffee shops, everything in one place. The streets are filled with young people from all over the world, students or tourists. Very touristic and lots of energy! You will see a lot of talented music performers. Going here is a must when you're in Seoul. The vibe is so different compared to Myeondong and Itaewon.

RYSE with Blue Bottle Coffee!

Ambiance/Facilities - Cool gym. The room was rather dark even with all the lights on and curtains drawn. Its a eco-friendly hotel. Many amenities are reusable, i.e. rubber slippers instead of disposable bedroom slippers.
4 adults stayed in the room and it was rather cramped.
Highlights - There’s blue bottle coffee pop up at the lobby! Really close to Hongdae shopping.
Getting there - 4 minutes walk from Hongik University Station Exit 9. If you have your luggages, get out from Exit 8 instead and walk additional 2 more minutes.

Rating - 4/5

Shop till you drop! 🛍️
Myeongdong and Hongdae are well known for their amazing street foods, snacks, night life atmosphere but also their shopping! As a tourist, most stores offer tax free shopping which is deducted in store or can be returned at the airport. A few places you should definitely stop by are LUSH, Innisfree, Banila Co, Olive Young, Style Nanda and Tony Moly for beauty and skincare! The prices are so much better and tax deduction is an added bonus!

Meet the famous Bibbidi and Bobbidi! 🐑
Seoul is known for their quirky cafes and Thanks Nature Cafe is one of them! Stop by for a delicious milkshake, coffee or tea and the best waffles! I had a chocolate mint milkshake with a banana chocolate waffle. Once you’ve enjoyed your snack, you can head out to the sheep pen and meet the famous duo. They seemed to be in a bad mood the day we were there, butting heads. They were scolded by their “father” and soon were eating happily next to each other again 😂 It’s about a 10 min walk from Hongdae station and quite easily found from the street. The owner was so friendly and spoke perfect English. #southkorea #seoultravel #hongdae #seoulcafe

Must Go Dessert Shop in Hongdae- Snowing Forest
This spacious and stylish cafe in Hongdae is a must go place after all the shopping. The cafe specializes in shaved ice, croissants and croffles, as well as many kinds of coffee and teas.
We were so impressed by the shaved ice which was presented in the shape of a rabbit. It is topped with matcha ice cream, red beans and almond flakes. The price is reasonable at 9900 won considering the generous size which is good for two.
The environment is nice and soft music plays in the background. There are also some seats with cushions on a platform which is great to hangout with friends.
All in all, this is a very cool place within the huddle of Hongdae.

Shopping paradise! 🌈🛍️
Seoul is really a shopping paradise especially for ladies! Even a queen sized bed is not enough to display all our purchases 🤪 The best shopping location was gotomall at express bus terminal metro station. Lanes of endless clothes, shoes, home decor, ladies accessories such as hair clips, earrings, hairbands at a cheap price! Bling bling hair clips were at KRW4,000 & clothes as cheap as less than KRW10,000! It was like bugis street on steroids, but at a cheaper price & even better quality😛
Sadly, there were only a handful of shops selling men clothes.
Other places to shop:
- Daiso (also has tidbits at KRW1,000)
- Sigonggan for a massive range of earrings, necklaces & some hair accessories, etc),
- Chakhan shoes for very affordable footwear for ladies (boots 👢, casual, work 🥿or high heel 👠)
- Namdaemun Market. Cheap socks for KRW10,000 for 12 pairs if I remember correctly.
- Olive Young. Skincare & makeup

Must eat in Seoul!
Caramelised marshmallow with ice cream inside is sooo good! Imagine the burnt caramel taste together with the mildly sweet ice cream..a perfect match. Comes in a few ice cream flavours - chocolate, strawberry & vanilla. Seller will use a cute gas lighter burner (usually a dinosaur or iron man hand design) to torch the marshmallow before giving it to you.
Address - Mangwon market & stall in hongdae. Also available at Myeongdong street cart but at a much higher price (heard it was KRW8,000)
Avg. Price per Person - KRW4,000-5,000
Rating - 5⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
#seouleats #seoul #hongdae #mangwonmarket
Introducing Hongdae, one of the most hip and popular area in Seoul 🙌🙌 But, note that the restaurants and pub along the main street is quite overpriced and touristy. If you want to be local and try out real one, I'd recommend you to take a detour towards Habjeong station. Please make sure to try Gobchang(cow intestine) and Shabu. Yummmmmm 🤤🤤
