I don't know how many of you have seen or heard about this yet but there is a great pie shop in Apkujeoung. It's right across the street from the California fitness. It opened up about 3 or 4 weeks ago and since I have been going there about twice a week for lunch. The pies will cost you less then 5,000 and the choices are great" sheperds pie, chicken cabanora, beef satay, steak and mushrooms, and the list goes on. The coffee they serve is also top notch. They have the beans auctually roasted in Seoul so they are super fresh. The owner/manager/not sure what he really is, from Australia and is great. The other workers there are also nice and helpful in making your pie choices. Alright gotta go finish the second of the two pies I purchased today.

Give the place a try you won't regret it.

Thanks for the tip. Only yesterday I was thinking I'd kill for a decent pie, chicken and mushroom or steak and kidney. And Australian pies definitely are the best!

You tease with forbidden meat pies... you horrible people in Seoul. For those of us in the hinterlands... we must make do. To spite you tommorow I shall create the most tasty Sheppards Pie that was ever made in my own kitchen.

You big city bastards and your meat pies.

[Kimchi Cha Cha]

Awesome. I normally don't eat pies all that often back home but they're the one thing I find myself missing and craving the most while here! I'd love a decent meat pie right now. I'll have to head up there sometime soon and get myself one (or two, or three, ..).

I am in seoul next month...i think i just found breakfast, lunch and dinner

[stumptown]

can someone please post directions?

[plattwaz]

Directions:

If you're heading from Apgujeong stn, it's a looooong walk. Get yourself to Galleria Dept Store, and from Galleria Dept Store intersection, head south down the main road (with lots of construction). IE/ Galleria is in two seperate buildings, stand with your back to the main entrance of either one, and walk away from them. Bondi's is down about 2 blocks, and will be on your right hand side.

It's been about 3 weeks since I've been up there, last time I was there Bondi's wasn't open yet, so I might be a little off in regard to what stores are just before it, or just after it, but a few larger landmarks in the area are -- California Fitness (across the street), Burger King, and Make Up Forever (opposite side of street).

I didn't want to get excited, because I've never heard of Bondi's before, and I thought there was a chance that it could be dessert pies...figured I'd be crushed if I went in for cheese and onion, and was met with nothing but apple and lemon meringue.....
