Korean restaurant with patio seats in Hapjeong, Seoul: Deogiwa
Deogiwa Hapjeong is a Korean restaurant in a side street near Hapjeong Station Exit 3 in Mapo, Seoul, serving home-style set meals by day and turning into a Korean pub at night. At the outdoor patio seats, the spicy pork stir-fry set meal, grilled mackerel, beef tartare and hot-pot rice were all light rather than salty or greasy, so they felt fine even while dieting. Deogiwa Hapjeong is a good pick when you want a quiet meal and easy conversation over outdoor dining.
