Hapjeong bar in Seoul with a custom non-alcoholic cocktail: Rosetta

Rosetta is a painting-themed cocktail bar in Mapo, Seoul, sitting midway between Hapjeong and Sangsu stations with a red European-style facade and outdoor terrace seats. Unable to drink because of a cold, the writer simply described the flavor of 'Dancer on Stage' from the menu and the bar built it as a non-alcoholic cocktail for 21,000 won, served alongside a Glenfiddich 15 glass at 20,000 won and a fruit and cheese platter at 18,000 won. On a cool evening, Rosetta's terrace is an easy place for a couple to have one quiet drink.
