The best by far I have come across has a name I do not remember.

But, best I can say is that it is a small private place, it not one of the chains, and is behind the building which houses the Taiwanese Trade Mission about 200 metres north of City Hall.

I like a cafe called "Amy's Place" or something- on the same street as the uni gates in Hongdae, almost opposite the Coffe Bean and Tea Leaf. They do stuff like roasted vegetables or ham and brie on bread they make in the shop.

The Wood & Brick. Gwanghwamun. Feels momentarily like you are in Europe.

I'm a big fan of the Tantalus chain that has both sandwiches and steak and mushroom hoagies that are (Homer drool)melt in your mouth delicious. Laughing

They're hardly the best sandwich joint in Seoul, but I like the ham & cheese and the tuna & cheese paninis at Portioli.

Is it called Jenny's? About 400 meters up the hill from Hongdae Uni gates. On the same side.

They do various fillings with homebaked Italian ciabatta(sp) bread. Really good.

that's it! Jenny's-

be warned though, every time you go in the staff it's always a meal break for the staff and what they're eating looks better than whatever you're having.

Oh dear.
I was going to say "Quizno's" in Gangnam, but I have been sorely underinformed.

Anyone remember a neat little cafe by the Harley Davidson shop in Hannam-dong called Ryder's? It had big fat thick sandwiches, but on my last trip there it had faded into oblivion. Has anyone come across a reopening of it anywhere? The had THE best club sandwiches piled high with turkey and smoked ham along with thick crisp bacon and a slice of sharp cheddar cheese. Mmmmm......

And you fellas in Seoul complain. Try living down here in the boonies. No sandwiches around here.

Jenny's is ok but I didn't get much sandwich for my 8,000 won.

Now that Philly's is closed, where can one get a decent steak and cheese sub?
