Samsung Station Italian restaurant: gim pesto risotto at Mano di Chef
Mano di Chef Samsung Branch is an Italian restaurant on the first basement floor of Dongsung Building, near Samsung Station and Coex in Gangnam, Seoul. After a three-hour screening of Odyssey at the Coex Dolby cinema, the writer ordered red shrimp bisque linguine (₩33,900) and gim pesto & seafood barley risotto (₩32,900) — the bisque sauce tasted like whole red shrimp in the mouth, and the scallops on the risotto were thick enough to cut with a knife. One pasta and one risotto are enough at Mano di Chef Samsung Branch, with the bowl scraped clean of sauce.
