Sunhwa-dong pasta restaurant in Daejeon with a 40-minute wait: Plate

Plate is a pasta restaurant in Sunhwa-dong, Jung-gu, Daejeon, where the fresh noodles are made in house.

The sauce clung to the fresh noodles instead of sliding off, and the wine-bottle decor made Plate a satisfying date-night pasta spot in Daejeon.
