Summer-only Colombia Geisha drip at a Seoul coffee shop: Central Site

Central Site Yeonnam is a hand-drip coffee shop in Yeonnam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, where more than 10 single-origin beans are brewed to order at the first-floor bar. On a staff recommendation, we smelled and picked the summer-only SUMMER SPECIAL FRUITY COLOMBIA Geisha, drank it over a large square ice cube, and paired it with the signature Classic Tiramisu. Even a drinker who avoids acidity found the Geisha and tiramisu combination at Central Site Yeonnam worth the trip.

Hwangnidang-gil mochi vs Hanjeongseon: fig and chocolate, Tareudang

Tareudang is a takeout-only fruit mochi and tart dessert shop tucked in a Hwangnidang-gil alley in Gyeongju, Gyeongbuk. On a quiet weekday the writer picked up four mochi — peach, gold kiwi, fig, and fresh chocolate — and found them noticeably bigger and more satisfying than the one-bite-sized mochi from Hanjeongseon. Buy four or more mochi and get ₩500 off each, making it easy to try several flavors at once.
