Yeonnam-dong pasta restaurant, kid-friendly no-jalapeño tomato pasta
Hey Joji is an American home-style pasta restaurant in Yeonnam-dong, Seoul, about 500m from Exit 3 of Hongik University Station. Dining with her spice-sensitive 9-year-old, the writer asked for the jalapeños to be left out of the bocconcini meat chili tomato pasta, while the garlic squid oil pasta turned out light and never greasy. Their picky eater finished almost all of a nearly 1.5-person portion, making this a solid pick for a family date in Hongdae.
