I'm sorry you had such a bad experience.
To this day I've never had a bad meal there. And I would consider myself either a weekly or bi-weekly regular. I find the meals to be of high quality, and their cafe latte is difficult to beat. The meals do come out rather quickly, as they try to rotate you out of there as there's usually a long line-up. I've never been served a meal too cold, just the opposite... usually I have to wait for it to cool down a bit.
However, I think I know the meal you were talking about (the one with the mushrooms -- the Flying Pan breakfast). I've had it once or twice, and I think it's a bit too heavy on the mushrooms. I wouldn't say it is 'bad' though. Just not big on it, and wouldn't have it again. Mushrooms were not steaming hot either, if I remember correctly. I've tried two other meals there I didn't like (the salmon egg one and alladins bowl - not great. my friend tried breakfast at tiffany's and that wasn't so great either). But everything else is good, and the reason I didn't like those is really just my personal taste -- they're not bad, really. Just not crazy about them.
My two favorite meals there are:
- Itaewon Breakfast
- Ham & Cheese Pesto sandwich
Get either of those, and you're doing just fine. I usually order a side of pancakes to go with it (which are quite good too!).
As for service, I find them extremely good. Always 3 or 4 girls on the floor just waiting for you... the guy is quite friendly. Reservations are easy to make (they take your phone number and call).
So, just wanted to add some balance to the post here. Oftentimes a restaurant will not get it right 100% of the time. I think the OP's experience could have been an irregularity... |
Are you the owner? |

Haven't found a half-way decent place doing up American style breakfast in Seoul. Always something that messes it up. I also have high expectations too. Stuff I make at home blows away most I've tried out.
Oh well. Just fewer places and things to spend money on in Seoul, which means more money to spend while traveling abroad. |
