Hongdae Western restaurant, cream pasta and steak: Hôtel de Couture
Hôtel de Couture is a Western restaurant on the 1.5th floor of a building on Donggyo-ro 46-gil in Mapo, Seoul, between Hongik University Station and Yeonnam-dong. With the room full of couples and groups, the writer took the last free table and ordered pea basil shrimp cream pasta, house steak and a burrata seasonal fruit salad together. Hôtel de Couture suits a day when one pasta isn't enough and you want several dishes to share.
