On a day of errands downtown, I enjoyed Palette Pasta and cream cheese gnocchi with a rich 72-hour-aged sauce, plus the mood of the window seats in the rain. A lovely choice for familiar Italian dishes with an unexpected twist. ## Good to know - **Hours**: Daily 11:30–21:00 - **Break time**: Weekdays 15:30–17:00 - **Last order**: 20:35 - **Takeout**: Available - **Ordered**: Palette Pasta, cream cheese gnocchi, baguette bread *as written by the visitor on Sep 9, 2026* ![Exterior view of Palette Hannam Daegu Dongseong-ro Branch](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-01-1yd1z-900.webp) ## A stylish fusion Italian restaurant in Daegu’s Dongseong-ro Not long ago, I visited Palette Hannam Daegu Dongseong-ro Branch, a popular pasta spot in Daegu’s Dongseong-ro. I had wanted to try this restaurant because it was known as a pretty Italian place with a lovely atmosphere, so I stopped in for lunch on a day when I had errands downtown. It is on the second floor of the building next to Hollys. It is a five-minute walk from Exit 2 of Jungangno Station on Line 1 and six minutes from Exit 10 of Banwoldang Station on Line 2, so it was wonderfully accessible by public transportation. - Daily 11:30–21:00 - Weekday break time: 15:30–17:00 - Last order: 20:35 - Takeout available ![Entrance to Palette Hannam on the second floor](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-02-k7w8a-900.webp) Walk up the stairs to the second floor and this bright pink exterior immediately catches your eye. ![Bright pink exterior of Palette Hannam](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-03-52hfa-900.webp) ## An interior of picture windows and pastel tones As soon as I stepped inside, the white-and-pastel palette drew my attention. The decor had such a charming, feminine feel that it was fun simply to look around. ![White and pastel-toned Italian restaurant interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-04-4ml2i-900.webp) The window seats in particular were set beside floor-to-ceiling windows, making the space feel open. A light rain happened to be falling that day, and looking down at the view outside gave it such a lovely mood. ![Window seating on a rainy day](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-05-7zygo-900.webp) The dining room was furnished with spacious four-person tables, with enough seating to accommodate plenty of people at once. ![Spacious interior with four-person tables](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-06-1towa-900.webp) Being right in the center of the downtown shopping district, it felt like a comfortable choice for dates, get-togethers with friends, family meals, or larger work dinners. ![Interior of an Italian restaurant in Dongseong-ro’s shopping district](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-07-1du5n-900.webp) ## Fusion Italian dishes and the two dishes I ordered Palette Hannam Daegu Dongseong-ro Branch is a Daegu pasta restaurant where you can find fusion-style Italian dishes with a character all their own. The menu has a varied selection of dishes that are a little unusual but still suited to popular tastes, including omurice, sizzling don tomahawk, pizza, hambak steak, kimchi katsu-don, and beef brisket salad. I did not get to try it this time because I ordered other things, but I normally love pizza. They had lots of varieties, including shrimp rosé, beef brisket and scallion bulgogi, and garlic, so I promised myself I would try one next time. ![Fusion Italian menu at Palette Hannam](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-08-xwu7n-900.webp) After debating what to have, I wanted to choose dishes that lots of people order at an Italian restaurant, so I went with Palette Pasta and cream cheese gnocchi. ![Order of Palette Pasta and cream cheese gnocchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-09-1dja0-900.webp) The plating looked like a work of art, and the appetizing presentation was more than enough to catch my eye before I even ate. I simply could not skip taking photos of this, so I clicked away enthusiastically. ![Appetizing Italian-style dish plating](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-10-yaabk-900.webp) I started with the baguette bread I had ordered to eat before the meal, almost like an appetizer. ![Baguette bread appetizer before the meal](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-11-472cb-900.webp) ## Cream cheese gnocchi with a 72-hour-aged sauce The cream cheese gnocchi had such round shapes that they looked a bit like scallops or meatballs, so I was curious about the taste. The combination with its 72-hour-aged sauce was absolutely perfect. ![Cream cheese gnocchi with aged sauce](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-12-j4v1f-900.webp) Gnocchi is an Italian dish made with potatoes and flour, and perhaps because it was prepared to suit Korean tastes, it suited mine perfectly too. ![Gnocchi made with potatoes and flour](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-13-fuc6z-900.webp) It was crisp on the outside and chewy inside, with a texture a little like potato rice cake. Dipped generously in the creamy sauce, it was wonderfully rich, and I cleared every last piece. ![Crisp and chewy cream cheese gnocchi](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-14-12yec-900.webp) ## Palette Pasta with special spices I hesitated because the sauces on my two dishes overlapped a little, but in the end I was so glad I ordered this classic pasta. Worthy of a signature dish at a Daegu Dongseong-ro pasta restaurant, its creamy flavor was deepened with special spices. ![Palette Pasta with special spices](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-15-1fmg7-900.webp) The pasta was cooked just right. It was great as a meal, but I also thought it would pair nicely with beer or wine. ![Perfectly cooked pasta noodles](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-16-pi0iy-900.webp) I also picked out and ate the garlic scapes mixed through it, and they worked surprisingly well with the Western-style dish. ![Garlic scapes mixed into the pasta](https://img.superchart.com/images/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam-17-8tm6g-900.webp) With its pretty, atmospheric decor fitting for a stylish Italian restaurant, Palette Hannam Daegu Dongseong-ro Branch was a Daegu Dongseong-ro pasta spot worth visiting when I wanted familiar yet distinctive flavors. ## Where it is - Palette Hannam Daegu Dongseong-ro Branch (빠레뜨한남 대구 동성로점) - 2F, 58 Dongseong-ro 2-gil, Jung-gu, Daegu, South Korea (대구광역시 중구 동성로2길 58 2층 빠레뜨한남) - 대구광역시 중구 동성로2길 58 2층 빠레뜨한남 - 35.8685102, 128.5969898 - Google Maps: https://www.google.com/maps/search/%EB%B9%A0%EB%A0%88%EB%9C%A8%ED%95%9C%EB%82%A8%20%EB%8C%80%EA%B5%AC%20%EB%8F%99%EC%84%B1%EB%A1%9C%EC%A0%90/@35.8685102,128.5969898,17z --- Superchart · https://superchart.com/en/@gyeongbuk-tablecloth/daegu-dongseongro-creamy-pasta-parrettehannam/ · https://superchart.com/llms.txt
