Potato gnocchi and rolled lasagna at Kongkase Seongsu, Seoul Forest
Kongkase Seongsu is a Western-style restaurant on the first floor of a red-brick building between Seoul Forest Station and Ttukseom Station in Seongdong, Seoul. Visiting for a daytime date with a close friend, potato gnocchi (₩19,000) and lasagna (₩23,000) came with a green salad, iced vin chaud, and blueberry ade — the mushroom cream sauce was good enough to dip the bread in. With floor-to-ceiling windows and a big tree inside, it's a solid pick for a Seoul Forest date meal.
