More Seoul Food: Coffee at Red Crow Street

After a marathon lunch in Seoul with Sarah Lee at Balwoo Gonyang, we all set out to explore a few other neighborhoods in the area. On our way, Sarah steered us toward the magical Red Crow Street coffee joint, a small, off-the-beaten path covered in customer-created and -hung illustrations, photos, notes, and doodles.

Now, Seoul has no shortage of coffee houses--almost to a fault, actually--but this one was so different, so unique, and so f-u-n, I think I spent more time taking photos than I did concentrating on the cute little cuppa hot chocolate I ordered.

(Incidentally, it was also the place where Danny and I took the only photo I have of the two of us together during our trip. Thank goodness Sarah was there to capture it!)
