A sign at Shinsegae Jukjun says a Dean and Deluca will open there in August. They're also upgrading their food court, etc.
Lotte VIC is opening a store in Shin Yeongtong/Dongtan soon in the current LotteMart building They're selling memberships to it now. It was to be in the old Grand Department store across from HomePlus in Yeongtong, which would have made getting to it by bus or subway (when it opens) quite easy, but traffic concerns made them relocate. |

That's not really food news. It falls more into the general category of shopping or "dining" if you must. You go to some mall, buy some clothes, books, computer supplies, etc..., and then get a bite to eat at an overpriced restaurant which has subpar quality food and service/ambiance.
Food news is where you report actual food you might get at some supermarket or area in town (more likely in the rural parts). |

Dean & Deluca is a grocery store. Grocery stores sell food. Hence... |

The D&L in Bangkok at the Sathorn/Narathiwatratchanakarin intersection is fantastic. That's a restaurant plus sales outlet. Can't hurt to have that in Korea. |
