Andamiro Pancake is a soufflé pancake café in Gwangjin, Seoul, on the 2nd floor of a building a 2-minute walk from Exit 1 of Konkuk University Station. The writer ordered the Andamiro soufflé pancake, a brown cheese croffle and a basil tomato ade, and the fluffy yet moist soufflé texture stood out most. With wood-tone interiors and well-spaced tables, Andamiro Pancake works for a date, catching up with friends or working solo.
Suwolgyeonghwa is a hanok-style tea café on the 4th floor facing Songjeong Beach in Haeundae, Busan, and a recent renewal added a late-night 'bammasil' (evening outing) service. On a second visit four years later, the round door finally opened onto the tea and goods room, followed by 'Su' (lemon and sparkling water), 'Geum' (green tea with geumgyul jeonggwa, candied kumquat) and the monaka dessert 'Pungwol'. Suwolgyeonghwa stays open daily until 11pm with last order at 10:30pm, making it a quiet place for a pot of tea after dark in Songjeong.
