How do you guys decide which restaurants to eat at? There are so many places to eat - just want to get a gauge of everyone's decision process. Word-of-mouth? - Any place spectacular you like?
Food blogs? - Here's one I've found seoulgrub dot com
Pictures they post outside? - What if no one's inside?
All of the above?[/url]

Seoul Eats --- www.seouleats.com

If you don't understand Korean, it helps to go with a friend that understands the menu.

Good luck!

I recommend spending two weeks going to a new restaurant every night. Korean food is pretty hard to screw up so you're guaranteed two weeks of good meals with a few really great meals thrown in. Some of the best places I've eaten at in my town were ones that the other foreigners had never heard of - won't know until you try Smile

I don't know whether you can read Korean or not. But if you type the location such as "용봉동" in the website 'naver.com', you will see the information about the location of restaurants. I didn't find the english version of 'naver.com'. But I suppose naver will provide the service. I think you will be better to find that than me. Good luck ㅋ

You could do what the natives do:

1. Choose a restaurant based on the sexual appeal of the waitresses

2. Choose a restaurant based on the number of people sitting on the floor when you look in the window.
