1. Queen's Bite - they make AWESOME Philly Cheesesteaks. I have been there probably 10 times and it doesn't disappoint. Hard for me to describe how to get there, if you go out exit 5 of Hongik Univ., and walk towards the onto that main busy street with all the shops on both sides, make a right, keep walking for about 3-4 minutes. It's past the tourism booth, so you have to cross one small street, it's not far after that on the left side. Here's a link someone wrote with a review,
http://www.seoulstyle.com/restaurants.php?aid=0000000052
it has the address in Hangul if you can read it. For 4,500 won they have a very delicious sandwich which has a very different taste than ones you are probably used to having.
2. Goulash and Soup - this place just opened up. All you can get there is goulash, bread and coffee. Though it's limited, the soup is phenomenal, really one of the best soup's I've had. A nice sized hot roll is served with it too. It's only 2,500 won as well. Very cheap price for a nice little snack. It's right across from the Hongdae park, around the corner in a small alley from the Ho Bar that's there (Ho Bar 2).
Enjoy. |

If he/she was a marketing executive I'm sure his/her directions would've been A LOT better than that. I have no idea where he/she's talking about...."walk towards that main busy street with all the shops on both sides"...??!! Oh. that one  |

Just add the place on WIKIMAPIA.ORG and place the link here, then we can all see where you're talking about.
'Wikimapia.org' people. Remember it. |

Thank you for the recommendation. This sounds super appealing and I will definitely give it a try.
It would be cool if we could get a group together on Dave's interested in trying different restaurants. |

Nice website, can't find it though. The address is in the link I posted on the image of the business card but it's in Hangul. Only landmark I know by there is the big tourist booth.
If you go out exit 5, make a left, then a right, you're on a long street which is mostly blocked off for shops but only some cars go down it. It's without a doubt the busiest street in Hongdae for businesses and people on the weekends or at night. Walk a few hundred meters, you pass the tourist booth, cross the street and it's not far up on the left. I think I remember walking past the Hello Kitty Cafe as well.
It's worth checking out. |

Ok, MUCH more coherent, but definitely not the one I thought you had in mind. Might give it a try sometime. |
