Sejong Korean restaurant, à la carte family lunch: Bapkkot Hansang

Bapkkot Hansang (밥꽃한상) is a Korean restaurant on the 3rd floor of the Sejong Machi building at 91 Doum 8-ro, Sejong. A family of mother-in-law, sister-in-law, husband and baby came at 2pm on a Sunday and skipped the Bapkkot Special for à la carte dishes: octopus-shrimp rice bowl (₩15,000), chive pancake (₩10,000), minari tteokgalbi (₩4,000) and herbal boiled pork (₩15,000), with the spicy, plump octopus-shrimp rice bowl and the chive pancake with soy dipping sauce the standouts. Several dishes sell out by a late lunch and Bapkkot Hansang's Sunday last order is 2:30pm, so go a little earlier or order generously.

Sejong Blue Ribbon café for low-acid, nutty americano: Café The Corner

Café The Corner is a roastery café in the Dodam-dong restaurant district of Sejong that has appeared in the Blue Ribbon Survey 12 years in a row, from 2015 to 2026. On an afternoon visit with her in-laws, the writer ordered two americanos (3,800 won each), a decaf café latte and honey bread (6,500 won), and the clean, nutty americano with almost no acidity stood out most. If you prefer nutty coffee over sour, acidic coffee, Café The Corner is a good fit.
