Was told about a couple of cafes where for 10,000 you can eat heaps of bread, drink teas and relax then stick your feet in a fish tank and have tiny fish nibble off all the dead skin from your feet. Where are these places? directions please!

I've heard about it from friends who I think said it's in Gangnam, but they're at Pentaport so I can't ask right now.

But if I may, does anyone know where the cafe is where you drink tea and pet cats?

Think I've seen something like it out of Gangnam station exit 6 between Paris Croissant and Kyobo building. Looked at the advertising banners, like wTF!

I seen a tv show on Arirang where you could go relax in a pool with these tiny doctors fish nibbling off dead skin in Daegu though it didnt' give the location. I have looked and asked, but no answers or directions on where that place is.

Last year in Seoul Selection magazine I read about a bar in Gangnam called GGONGJJA where you soak your footsies whilst having a drink with free anju.. no mention of fish nibbling your feet though.

Are these little fungus nibblers the same little fish-ees I ate at dinner last night; and subsequently lunch last week?

There's one in Hongdae, and I discovered another one by accident yesterday close to Sillim Stn., near Seoul Natl Uni. Have yet to partake to toe-nibbling experience, though ...

I've been to one ouside of Yonshinae Sta. in N. Seoul where line 3 and line 7 meet. I think it was called Book Cafe or something like that. It was a nice place and the free bread came with free jam. You could also buy a bottomless cup of coffee which is rare in SK. Wish it was closer to the city.

Jump out of exit number 6 and walk straight for about five minutes and you'll see it on your left. second floor. TICKLES TO *beep*. Recommend.
