I bookmarked it the moment it opened and only just now made it in ㅠㅠ I wanted French toast so badly..... ## Where is Raicho, and what are its hours and parking?

It's a back alley, but parking is possible! Raicho's hours are 9:30 to 17:30. Regularly closed every Sunday. ## Inside Raicho: the space and the menu Inside the café. ![Full view of Raicho café interior](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-01-anwc1-900.webp) The order counter. ![Raicho order counter](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-02-6newr-900.webp) The menu board.

Japanese for ptarmigan (雷鳥) Grab a sticker! This character... Raicho? That's not Korean....!? Wait, is it Japanese!?? 雷鳥 (ptarmigan)??! Just in case, I asked, and yep, it's ptarmigan. ![Raicho ptarmigan character sticker](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-05-10wk3-900.webp) ![Close-up of Raicho character sticker](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-06-178fy-675.webp) ![Goods and stickers next to Raicho counter](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-07-1wg94-900.webp) Apparently the coffee is good too? ![Raicho coffee bean information](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-08-17r85-900.webp) ![Raicho coffee menu introduction](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-09-qa00i-900.webp) ## How many seats does Raicho have? There were more seats than I expected. On the right of the entrance are three 2-seat tables. Pushed together, they work for groups too.

I had to snap a photo fast because of the cream ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ ![Raicho con panna topped with cream](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-18-189nq-900.webp) ![Close-up of Raicho con panna cream](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-19-1ysmu-900.webp) Con panna (₩5,000). My usual go-tos are milk tea or refreshing ades, but... I heard the French toast here pairs really well with coffee, haha, so if coffee, then espresso-based! ![Cup of Raicho's signature con panna](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-20-o9q81-900.webp) Plus con panna is on Raicho's signature menu, so I had to order it! ![Strong espresso visible in the con panna](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-21-185lt-900.webp) ![Vertical shot of Raicho's con panna](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-22-1bddc-900.webp) The coffee is really strong!!! Totally nutty beans! ![Plain Shome PT French toast at Raicho](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-23-grzkg-966.webp) ![Cross-section of Shome PT French toast cut in half](https://img.superchart.com/images/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe/raicho-jeju-french-toast-cafe-24-120jt-966.webp) ## Shome PT French toast, 8,000 won: what does it taste like? Shome PT French toast (₩8,000). Made with brioche bread aged through to the center, with a brûlée-like crust — a French toast full of buttery flavor and sweetness!! On the menu it just said #ShomePT, and I know PT for French toast, but... Shome? The café's name is SHOMER RAICHO, so I guess that's where it comes from? Ah, it's big? ㅋㅋㅋㅋ I ordered the plainest version to eat light, but ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ even without fruit or ice cream, the portion is huge ㅋㅋㅋㅋ Go plain your first time!!! And branch out from there next time! I cut it in half, and oh, this is kind of unique. Every French toast I've had so far has been just soft.... this one has a slightly firm(?) crust texture on the outside, so it wasn't uniformly soft throughout. I actually like firm bread, so I loved this kind of French toast — you get two textures in one!! The middle was totally soft while the outside had a nice chewy bite? Best of both worlds? ㅋㅋ ## A Jeju City café that works for a solo visit Raicho, a Jeju City café near the Jeju Library. A place I really wanted to visit as a famous Jeju French toast spot!! It's in a quiet alley, so I could sit down comfortably even alone, and the vibe was great too!!
