Mangwon coffee shop with window seats and bean choices: PICT Roastery

PICT Roastery Mangwon Branch is a house-roasting café on World Cup-ro 23-gil near Mangwon Market in Mapo, Seoul. The writer took a window seat with an iced americano, pistachio tiramisu and a caffe latte, and chose the coffee beans from a list of aroma and flavor notes at the counter. PICT Roastery is a calm spot built for slowing down rather than taking photos.

Suwon café near Hwaseong Palace with melon sando: Jeong Ji-young

Jeong Ji-young Coffee Roasters Haenggung Main Branch is a roastery café on Sinpung-ro in Haenggung-dong, Suwon. The writer stopped in while walking Hwaseong Haenggung Palace and Haengridan-gil, ordered a melon sando (melon cream sandwich) with an iced Americano, and moved from floor to floor through rooms filled with vintage furniture and small decor pieces. Jeong Ji-young Coffee Roasters Haenggung Main Branch suits a slow stay far better than a quick coffee-and-go stop.
