We
start with chili soup (5,200won). This inclueds chunks
of minced beef, chilis beans, chopped carrot and onion,
with a dollop of sour cream for good measure.
It
is fierce enough to keep the February chills at bay,
but mild enough not to blast a hole in your trousers
seat. Pretty good, in other words.
There is a
lot of taste and texture going on here-smoky bacon,fresh
leaves, balsamic drizzle, chopped nuts and crisp croutons.
This would be a light lunch in and of itself.
Next up is prosciutto sandwich(7,500won). This is not
ready made but bespoke, served on soft, whole wheat
foccacio.It encompasses fresh lettuce, prosciutto ham
and grana padano cheese. There is also a thin spread
of olive mulch or tapenade for extra flavor. Substantial
and delightful.
Finally,
porcini mushroom risotto(15,000won). This is a thick,
creamy number, and - take note competing restaurateurs
- the rice is textured rather than being being soft
and sloppy.
The dish is topped with several shavings of parmesan
and is probably the best risotto I have ever eaten in
Seoul. |
