Bisque pasta and rooftop floors at Gangnam restaurant The Mignon Seoul
The Mignon Seoul is a casual dining restaurant in a standalone two-story building midway between Gangnam Station Exit 11 and Sinnonhyeon Station Exit 6 in Gangnam, Seoul. The Mignon Seoul spreads across floors — a semi-open kitchen on the 1st, full-height windows on the 2nd, and a 3rd-floor rooftop that had not opened yet at the time of this visit — and the meal covered a seasonal fruit ricotta salad at 18,000 won, round pasta in bisque sauce, and an oven-baked popover pancake. It gets both the mood and the food right, which makes it an easy pick for a date or a group get-together.
