Hapjeong Station seafood pasta and Margherita Bufala: Pizzeria O

A review of Pizzeria O Hapjeong Station, a pizza and pasta spot near Hapjeong Station ♪

This is calm and steady Bonibonie ~♪ 🌿 I went to Pizzeria O Hapjeong Station, a great date spot in Hapjeong, and enjoyed the perfect combo of wood-fired pizza and pasta.

Pizzeria O is the pizza brand of Chef Lee Jin-hyung, who once placed first at the World Pizza Championship. 'O' is meant as an exclamation, and their slogan is 'baking amazement.' They bake dough that's been cold-fermented for 72 hours in a wood-fired oven, so I had high expectations for the pizza.

• Peach iced tea

Margherita Bufala: bufala cheese and basil

Margherita Bufala is a Margherita pizza topped with fresh bufala cheese from Italy's Campania region.

The tangy tomato sauce, soft and savory bufala cheese, and fragrant basil came together beautifully, with a slightly salty umami touch that gave it great depth of flavor.

The dough was nice and chewy, and I enjoyed it a lot — the tangy pickles alongside kept refreshing my palate between bites. I thought about trying the jalapeños too, but my friend, who'd tasted them first, stopped me, saying, 'You can't handle these.' Haha. I passed, and my friend, who's good with spicy food, enjoyed them with the pizza instead.

Can the seafood pasta spice level be adjusted?

The seafood pasta at Pizzeria O Hapjeong Station can be made less spicy on request. It's an appetite-whetting dish made with whole squid and various seafood in a pomodoro sauce with spicy peperoncino. The menu showed two chili marks for spice level, which made me hesitate a little, but they told me the spice could be adjusted, so I ordered it milder.

The pasta had a brothy sauce, more like a soup-style pasta, and the portion was generous. With crab, mussels, shrimp, and squid all mixed in, the seafood's umami really came through in the sauce, making it a satisfying dish to enjoy.

Carbonara topped with a poached egg

The carbonara came with a pretty, round poached egg on top. Breaking the yolk and mixing it well into the noodles and sauce added a rich, savory flavor to the already creamy sauce, making it thick and indulgent.

Sweet peach iced tea
