Itaewon

There is this one place in Seoul that is famous with its mixed culture people. Lots of foreigners, and you can find foreign restaurants here. Indian, Turkish, Indonesian, and many more. In the day time, the street is packed with tourists who are sight-seeing, buying things from souvenir shop, having lunch or just enjoying a nice cup of coffee in the open air cafes. During night time, the restaurants turn to be night clubs and bars.

That's right, I am talking about Itaewon.

Yesterday was my second time went to Itaewon. We took train line 6 from Digital Media City to Itaewon (about 7 stations away), no need to transfer.

He was half asleep already

Around 12 we arrived in the crowded Itaewon. Andra was sleeping at the time and so we decided to have lunch first. We were craving for a big portion lunch as we only took a little breakfast, so the Turkish restaurant seemed good for us. There are several Turkish restaurant in Itaewon, this time we tried Mr. Kebab.

 

Look at my face! Checking on the counter wheter 
they've finished preparing my dish hehe..

As expected, their meals came in huge portion, and tasted really nice too! I ordered pilaf with chicken kebab and my husband ordered Jumbo chicken kebab.

After lunch, then it came the time for some coffee. Starbucks Itaewon it is! Andra was awake then and he had his lunch there, followed with choco chip muffin dessert.

When we were home, exhausted and all, it was just nice to have our family quiet time. And this little boy's smile is such a stress reliever.
