Cafe BBQ - Sungyeol's place

One of the top list places that i have to visit the last time I visited Seoul is Sungyeol's restaurant in Hapjeong, since it's only a station away from Hongdae, where i stayed.

So, here it is.

CAFE BBQ


Of course, this restaurant need a big picture of Sungyeol. lol


They have terrace area only, too cold during winter

The food kind of so - so, their main dish is chicken as you might already guessed.

DIRECTIONS:

Exit 3 of Hapjeong station
when you're out of exit 3, turn around and walk straight. it's on your left. don't walk too fast you might missed it, like i did. check this website for more details directions.

Viva Polo - Chanyeol's Heaven Go To Place

Finally able to taste Viva Polo, EXO's Chanyeol restaurant.
The location is a bit far from the city center of Seoul, but the food is really really good. My husband that is quite picky, turns out loving the food.


Stairs to Viva Polo with many messages left from fan



All merchandises related to EXO, mostly Chanyeol.
Collectible only, not for sale


THE FOOD



I did try:
1. Pomodoro/Crema di Granchio - spaghetti with tomato pasta and crab on top of (taste really good!)
2. Anchovy pizza - the anchovy taste not really apparent, but i love the cheese taste

Reserved Area.
The restaurant state to not take pictures when people eat in this area
I am lucky enough to eat infront of this area, so I can observe all the graffiti there.




DIRECTIONS:

1. Exit 1 of  Myeongil station. Once you're out of the exit 1, turn right at the very first intersection and look on your right. Viva Polo is located at 2nd floor and the name sign is like above picture, really small in reality. So do look out carefully.

EXIT 1 can basically seen from the restaurant, shows how close it is :)))
