Terrace brunch with mushroom galette and burrata at Le Bon Goûter

With that crisp autumn breeze perfect for lounging on a terrace these days, I visited Le Bon Goûter, a brunch café with an exotic vibe located in Apgujeong Rodeo.

Terrace seats and the café atmosphere

The terrace seats near the entrance are perfect for sitting back and relaxing in weather like this!

Step inside and you're greeted by the faint scent of fresh flowers — the mood is sophisticated yet cozy, and genuinely charming.

So many foreign customers come here too that it's already established itself as a local hotspot.

Seating for solo diners, dates, and group gatherings

There are window seats good for eating solo, and also good for couples sitting close together.

Further inside there's group seating too, ideal for gatherings or wedding invitation meetups.

The self-serve bar has bottled water and napkins neatly arranged, so you can help yourself anytime.

What I ordered

Le Bon Goûter is a brunch café known for its healthy, nutty buckwheat galette (savory crepe), lasagna aged for a day, and pasta made with house-made sauce. Everything looked delicious, so after some deliberation I ordered the mushroom sauté galette and burrata cheese with an added focaccia slice, plus an iced americano and peppermint leaves to drink.

Risart-bean iced americano and peppermint leaves

The drinks arrived first and stood out visually right away. The iced americano in particular, made with beans from Risart — a café famous for its coffee — had a clean yet deep flavor that paired beautifully with the brunch.

The peppermint leaves were fragrant through and through :)

When the main dishes appeared shortly after, the plating alone was gorgeous!

Adding the focaccia slice to the burrata cheese was the master stroke

Burrata cheese — burrata, tomato, shine muscat grapes, arugula, cashews, pepper, EVOO

Cutting into the burrata with a knife released layer after layer of moist, creamy milky flavor, perfectly balanced by tangy tomato, sweet shine muscat, and slightly bitter arugula.

The crunch of nutty cashews added texture, making it feel refined without being overpowering — a textbook example of understated luxury.

Adding the focaccia slice in particular was a stroke of genius. Piled high with cheese, fruit, and arugula on soft, plainly baked focaccia bread, it was such a perfect match that I kept reaching for more. The ingredients worked so well together it was almost addictive!

The taste of the mushroom sauté galette

Mushroom sauté galette — mushrooms, arugula, fried egg, béchamel sauce, Grana Padano cheese, mozzarella cheese, EVOO

The mushroom sauté galette had a healthy buckwheat crust piled high with butter-soaked mushrooms and fresh arugula, delivering a nutty, clean flavor that got better with every bite.

The harmony between the fried egg, béchamel sauce, and cheeses was excellent, filling the mouth with rich flavor.

Visually delightful, wonderful flavors, and perfect Risart coffee — this place had it all! If you want to enjoy a relaxed moment on the terrace in Apgujeong during this fresh autumn weather, be sure to visit Le Bon Goûter :)
