It was a day I came to Garosu-gil after a long time to have brunch with a friend :-) We couldn't decide where to go, wanted somewhere we hadn't tried, and wandered around until we found this Apgujeong-area gem, Nora's ✨ The exterior already has such an American feel that I knew coming was a good idea before I even tasted anything. It's a Sinsa Garosu-gil brunch café!

Here's the location! There's valet parking in front of the restaurant, ₩4,000 for the first 2 hours, so it's perfect for anyone looking for a place with easy parking :D

The place is quite spacious too. It was so hot out that the streets were empty, so I figured it would be relaxed, but it turns out everyone was gathered right here 👀✨

They have baby and toddler high chairs too, so it's great for brunch with kids, right? Hehe

While we were snacking on the bread before the meal, the brunch dishes from this Apgujeong-area favorite were suddenly ready 👀✨🤍

Three brunch dishes ordered at Nora's Sinsa

What we ordered was the bacon Caesar salad, the homemade meat lasagna, and the melting cranberry French toast :D

First up was the bacon Caesar salad! Crunchy romaine with Nora's own Caesar dressing, topped with crispy bacon for texture and big croutons, which made it feel extra generous :D The sauce is seriously delicious ㅠㅠㅠㅠ

Signature homemade meat lasagna

Next was the signature homemade meat lasagna! Layers upon layers of rich, hearty ragù, and since it's the signature dish of this Sinsa Garosu-gil brunch spot, I really recommend ordering it.

Rich ragù and savory cheese are layered and baked sizzling in the oven, with sauce and cheese packed in generously. It was absolutely heavenly..🤍 The kind of taste where you want one lasagna per person ㅠㅠㅠ

Melting cranberry French toast presentation

I heard this place is a French toast hotspot, so I quickly ordered the melting cranberry French toast :-D Just look at it, the presentation is insane, seriously~~~

Zesty cranberry custard cream completely covers a thick slice of French toast. The bread is so soft and the cream is tangy and tasty, so I kept reaching for more :-D It would also be perfect as a dessert after finishing your brunch, hehe. And since the coffee is unlimited, you could hold a Sinsa Garosu-gil brunch meetup here and keep the coffee time going right on from there!

Brunch table with a lovely atmosphere at Nora's Sinsa

The dishes we ordered were all delicious, but the atmosphere was so nice it made me want to keep taking photos, which made me even happier with this Sinsa Garosu-gil brunch spot, Nora's 🤍

If you want to try American home-style food, balanced to suit Korean tastes and based on New York classic diner recipes, in a cozy space with a great atmosphere, how about Nora's in Sinsa/Apgujeong? =3
