Today, I had some errands in downtown Daegu for the first time in a while and stopped by Dento (덴토), a newly opened café in Banwoldang.

I’d been seeing Dento, a Banwoldang café, a lot on Instagram lately. I absolutely love sandwiches, so whenever a new place opens, I tend to check it out—and Dento is apparently a great Banwoldang brunch spot, with triple-cheese sandwiches, grilled sandwiches, and even French toast? Since I was in Bongsan-dong, I went straight there right when it opened. 😎 More than anything, I really loved the drip coffee that day. 🤎

Dento’s lovely green sign. Good morning 🌿

My picks today: five bite-size open sandwiches and drip coffee.

There was a pretty self-service station in the middle. 🤍

When I walked in, the whole place felt calm and quiet. Pretty fresh flowers were arranged here and there on the tables, which made me so happy. 💚 There were lovely fresh flowers on my table too.

It seemed like a nice place to take a quick break while running errands downtown, or to visit on a day when you want to chat over coffee somewhere quiet rather than somewhere bustling.

## How Was Dento’s Drip Coffee?

Personally, atmosphere matters when I choose a café, but I care quite a lot about the coffee in the end. The drip coffee I had that day was truly delicious. :) I could really taste its aroma and flavor, yet it was easy to drink without feeling too heavy. Sometimes I visit cafés with beautiful spaces but disappointing coffee, but Dento’s drip coffee is the one that has stayed with me. 🤎

## Five Bite-Size Open Sandwiches

I also tried Dento’s five bite-size open sandwiches. I loved that they came in small portions on one plate, so I could experience several flavors at once.

In the order I ate them: pan con tomate → avocado salmon → romesco grilled vegetables → shrimp rémoulade → truffle ricotta. A staff member recommended eating from the left. Each one had different toppings, so it was fun to try them one by one.

*Fresh pan con tomate 🍅*

They began with relatively mild, familiar flavors, then gradually became more varied as I went along—nutty richness, freshness, vegetable texture, shrimp flavor, and more. So rather than eating a lot of just one kind, it was actually more fun to sample a little of all five.

### The Shrimp Rémoulade That Stayed With Me Most

🦐 My pick was the shrimp rémoulade. It had celery along with the shrimp, so there was a crisp bite, and I loved the fresh aroma that celery has. 🌿 Eating the five in order, they started mild and gradually gained more flavor as I went along. But personally, the shrimp rémoulade was the most memorable. 🦐 Owner!! Please put a shrimp rémoulade sandwich on the menu as its own item‼️ It was absolute bliss with the drip coffee. ☕️ The drip coffee really elevated the sandwich flavors :)

## An Owner Who Kindly Explained Every Sandwich

One more thing I liked that day. 🤍 The owner was so kind. The young owner served us personally, and rather than simply bringing over the food, he explained the ingredients in every sandwich so well. Some of the items were new to me, so listening to the explanation while eating helped me understand what flavors to look for, and it also made me feel that a great deal of care goes into the food. The service was kind too, so I had a really pleasant time there.

## My Overall Take on Dento, a Bongsan-dong Café in Daegu

I liked the quiet, calm café atmosphere, and above all, the drip coffee suited my taste, so I was very satisfied. With the five bite-size open sandwiches too, it would be a nice place to visit when you want café food that feels a little different from usual. If you’re looking for a newly opened café with a quiet atmosphere in Bongsan-dong, or want to enjoy deep drip coffee with delicious sandwiches, stop by Dento! Even as I’m writing this, I can still taste those sandwiches. I think I’ll be back at Dento again soon. 🥹
