The Palace Cafe @ Hongdae (Seoul)

The Palace is about 100 metres away from our apartment. I wasn't very keen to go to this cafe even though X kept saying that he wanted to visit it. We finally did, one day and I'd have made a terrible mistake if I had missed this cafe. It's insanely beautiful.

Affogato
The coffee was strong and not bad but the icecream really sucked.


Iced mocha


Waffle with icecream
Once again, the icecream was an utter disappointment. The waffle was fragrant and crisp and was a delight.

Isn't the place pretty? It's so elaborately decorated and designed and it sure did make us feel like royalty! I really love the place! The service was excellent too as the staff searched every single compartment to find one that was suitable for the both of us as we required two powerpoints for our laptops. Photography is not allowed in the cafe so I only managed to snap a few pictures before I was stopped by the staff. We spent close to $30sgd here. Although the coffee and food were not really that good, being able to relax and chill in such a pretty setting is worth the money I guess.
