â–²Location: 1F, 9 Okhyeon-ro 51beon-gil, Nam-gu, Ulsan
▲Opening hours: 11:00 — 21:30 every day, closed on Sundays
â–²Price: Yukhoe gimbap 6,000 won, tteokbokki 6,000 won
â–²Testimonial (My butt feels heavy after eating): It looked plain, but when I went in, it was pretty. From wallpaper to tables and accessories… It was nice that barley tea is based on water. There were three people, and they were pigs, so they ordered tteokbokki, sundae, flat bibimbap, yukhoe gimbap, and tuna rice balls! The most delicious one was yukhoe gimbap. The yukhoe itself is fresh, and it's eaten with wasabi, so it tastes like core honey… Be sure to order it and try it. The tteokbokki had a normal flavor, but it was quite spicy, and other foods were also worth eating.
2. It has an exotic atmosphere! 'Wapille' in Itaewon-dong, Seoul

They only sell waffles in two styles, Liège and Brussels, but I ordered coffee separately on a plate for 1 person. Not only were the waffles tasty, but the coffee was also savory and delicious! I was happy to eat ice cream on it because it was sweet ><

â–²Testimonial (I mean eating pork cutlet): It's a pork cutlet specialty store at the back of the American Cultural Center, but I found it on Instagram~ From the entrance, the interior is prettier than any other cafe, and it's very tasteful… I ordered Neapolitan and mozzarella menchicas! First of all, I was excited because the ingredients were good, but the Napolitan had a deep flavor and the sauce wasn't plain. The pork cutlet was also very moist on the inside, so next time I'll just eat pork cutlet instead of mozzarella!

I ordered several, but the most delicious one was the steak, which was really juicy and chokechoku, so JMT!

â–²Price: crucian carp 4,300 won, encube 5,000 won
â–²Review (Shikigami tomatotoamto): It's right next to Great Coffee, so it's easy to find. The windows are big, the lighting is good, and the atmosphere is minimal and oriental… I ordered a crucian carp, an cube, and coffee. You can enjoy all four flavors of encube: chocolate, red bean, mugwort, and beet. The crucian carp is thin and crispy, and is a luxurious Samanco-style bread.

I was able to see them baking on their own, and it was great that the tables were widely spaced! I'm glad for milk tea… I actually ate milk tea here and it was delicious, so I bought a bottle when I went home. Hahahahahahahahahaha, the cheesecake also has a sugar coating on top like creme brulee, and I like the sweet yet crunchy texture!
