There are so many unique restaurants along taft, especially cafes. Among that I've been to were Noriter and Cafe Travel. Both are cool but what I really wanted was to visit Cafe de Seoul in One Archer's Place. It's much farther from Vito Cruz that's why the visit came late.
History, history |
No way, hallway |
One Saturday after Independence Day (oh, sorry for the late blog, then) while most of the shops in One Archer's Place was closed, dropped by happily at Cafe de Seoul.
First thing I looked for: tablets on the table. But gone! Where did they go? Noticed too that the aircon was a bit malfunctioning, it's not getting colder.
Ooops, no tablet |
But cute interior |
Anyway, concentrating on the food... On their menu, as I'm actually looking for something to eat, I'm glad to find out that they serve rice meals! Compared to others which only serve sweets x sweets.
Arrival or departure. Altho sorry for the shot |
Rice, yes! |
Bing-Soo next! |
Tried their Kimbab Beef at Php 120. At this price, I already got about 10 slices. Taste was okay, tasty enough but nothing spectacular. Rice was not so soft as I'd expect from the Japanese version. (Or, educate me. Is this really the thing?)

Also had Mango Smoothie at Php 150. First taste was a bit off. It wasn't made of natural mangoes. But later on, good thing, it went fine. It also has a few swirls of caramel. That made it a bit better.

I really had high expectations from Cafe de Seoul. Though I haven't been there before, I think it has deteriorated slightly. Or was it because it's Saturday? And wifi isn't working that time. Double whammy!
Good thing there are still many restos to try around. That is, after I come back for their Bing-soo :)
