Your Guide to Goyang, South Korea
Finally made it to Joshua Burger over in Baekseok-dong, Goyang the other day. My friend and I got up super early to watch a movie at 9.20am. It was the only time that worked for both of us. We are both night owls so it was a big effort but sometimes it has to be done.... Continue Reading →
Soupy (수피) is a great little restaurant located upstairs (Building A) in La Festa. I recently visited for brunch and was very impressed. It looks like a country kitchen type place and the food has that kind of feel too. Everything looks and tastes homemade (it seems like most of it is made on the premises)... Continue Reading →
Bistro Corner (비스트로 코너) is my favorite hamburger place in Ilsan so far.

There are the standard fast food options like McDonalds, Burger King and Lotteria but that's about it that I have found so far. If you know of any other interesting places please let me know. However there is one... Continue Reading →
I visited Cafe Like Like (라이크라이크) for brunch with a couple of friends last week. It's always good to check out what different cafes offer in the way of brunch.
