What we ordered was the Camel Orzo Signature SET for ₩43,600. - 🍄 Truffle mushroom soup - 🥗 Jambon salad (French dressing) - 🍝 Pomodoro burrata pasta - 🥤 Drink Soup, salad, pasta, and a drink all in one — a really solid, filling set. ### Truffle mushroom soup This was honestly my best dish of the meal! It's a soup blended with truffle and two kinds of mushrooms, really bringing out the mushroom flavor. ![Truffle mushroom soup at Camel Orzo](https://img.superchart.com/images/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad-15-1bh9a-552.webp) The moment I took a bite, this smooth, savory flavor hit right away — so good. ![A spoonful of truffle mushroom soup](https://img.superchart.com/images/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad-16-1747l-m-552.webp) You could taste a gentle hint of truffle along with the deep mushroom flavor — I really want to recommend this one 💛 ### Fig-berry jambon ricotta salad This is an autumn seasonal salad with in-season figs and fresh blueberries 🫐, domestic jambon, and soft ricotta cheese. ![A plate of fig-berry jambon ricotta salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad-17-1viue-966.webp) You can choose between French dressing and balsamic dressing — I went with French. ![Jambon salad served with French dressing](https://img.superchart.com/images/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad-18-m1iel-966.webp) First of all, look how pretty this looks 💚 ![Salad topped with figs and blueberries](https://img.superchart.com/images/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad-19-1olt0-966.webp) Thanks to the figs and blueberries, the colors were lovely and the fresh, tangy flavor made the salad itself genuinely delicious. ![Serving up the fig-berry jambon salad](https://img.superchart.com/images/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad-20-ij2a8-966.webp) Eating this many vegetables for once made me think, "Am I actually getting healthier today?" It was both tasty and pretty haha. ### Pomodoro burrata pasta A pasta faithful to the basics — a tomato pasta made from tomato sauce simmered with fresh tomatoes and natural ingredients (no water added), with fresh garlic and cheese, and topped with burrata cheese. A truly pure tomato pasta, apparently. ![Pomodoro burrata pasta at Camel Orzo](https://img.superchart.com/images/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad-21-1ddiw-966.webp) ![Tomato pasta topped with burrata cheese](https://img.superchart.com/images/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad/camel-orzo-signature-set-fig-jambon-salad-22-1fg34-966.webp) The bright tomato flavor and the soft burrata cheese worked well together, making it clean and easy to eat. ## Is Camel Orzo worth the wait? - A great-atmosphere Italian dining spot in Sangmu - Outdoor terrace makes waiting comfortable - Stylish, exotic-feeling interior - Jambon salad with seasonal fruit and jambon - Parking support makes visiting by car easy - Recommended for dates, friend gatherings, and family meals It was one of those days when the weather was nice and I really wanted something delicious, so I even waited for once — but it wasn't a wait I regretted at all.
