|
|
Can anyone recommend some places around Seoul that I can get a good calzone at a reasonable price? |

I went to the pizza place in the basement of Times Square- Youngdeungpo and ate a calzone there. It was... okay.
Also check out Pizza Peel in Itaewon. Just about the same, but this time there was less cheese and more tomato flavor.
Both were high-priced.  |

Guess that'll have to do. Thanks for the info.
On a side note, don't want to start a new thread. Where can I find some Pop Tarts? So far I've been getting em shipped from back home but shipping is a killer. Didn't see them at Namdaemun Underground either, only place I can think of is the PX Exchange. No way for me to get on base though  |

You can get Pop Tarts at the Red Door Store or the Foreign Supermarket (both in Itaewon) or at the Happy Store in 경리단. |

La Tavola in Itaewon, but you're paying nearly 20,000 won for it. |

The Emart near me (Konkuk) has them, although I haven't tried them yet. |

There's a decent Italian place in Myeong-dong right at the west entrance near YP Books. It has decent calzones, good pizza, and great pasta. |

Do you know what subway exit that is? I've never seen YP books in Myeong-dong, though to be fair, every time I've gone to myeong-dong. I was plastered  |

Thank you, I'll check these places out. Do you remember how much it was for a box? And how many were in the box? |

As with any foreign item in Korea, not cheap. Last time they had both Pop Tarts and Tostems. The Tostems are much cheaper. I think a box with 4 packs of Pop Tarts (2 Pop Tarts in each pack) was 8,000 won, and a box with 6 packs of Tostems (again, 2 Tostems in each pack) was also 8,000 won. I bought the Tostems to give them a try and honestly couldn't a huge difference. The Pop Tarts are a bit better, but not enough to justify the extra cost. |

The closest station is Euljiro-1ga. It's across from the Lotte Dept Store, kind of "between" Myeong-dong and Euljiro-1ga stations. YP Books is in the basement of the CGV building. The entrance is on the west side of the building and the Italian place is right there. |
