Gangnam dessert café with fresh grapefruit yogurt bowls: Lazy Yogurt

Lazy Yogurt Gangnam is a custom Greek yogurt dessert café on Yeoksam-ro in Gangnam-gu, Seoul, open every day of the year from 10:00 to 20:00. On a late-night visit, two bowls were packed to go — pistachio and chestnut topped with fresh grapefruit, and strawberry and black sesame with granola, natural honey and plum — and shared at home. Both Lazy Yogurt bowls stayed dense and thick with no artificial sweetness, good enough to finish as breakfast the next morning.
