the brunch menu at 'the page'

Spent a Saturday afternoon with friends to check out this fairly new brunch spot ‘The Page’ in Bangbae-dong.

Their menu-pretty straight forward with very reasonable prices…really enjoyed most of the dishes, however my friends and I came to a conclusion that the portions are smaller than it looks.  So if you do go there, I would advise getting a side of waffles (mini waffles start at 3,000 won).  My favorite was the English egg muffin (their take on eggs benedict with beef instead of Canadian bacon).

The interior is to the point.  Minimal, the way I like it.  3 floors, with private sections if you would want to hold meetings.  Wi-fi available, valet available, however they do not take reservations.  The place is quite large, so you shouldn’t have a hard time finding a table!

inside 'original pancake story' in hannam dong

i’m having such a great time exploring more and more ‘hot spots’ all around seoul! it seems endless, but i’m sure i’ll find my favorites soon enough…hannam dong is actually one of the greatest towns to get fabulous food-especially hard finds like ‘american brunch’ or thai and indian restaurants…i found ‘the original pancake story’ through zen kimchi’s blog recently, which was voted best brunch in seoul.  however, i wasn’t too impressed with the pancakes. maybe i’ll have to try their other dishes next time! i think i’ve been spoiled rotten by chicago’s ‘bongo room, tweet, milk and honey, taste of heaven,’ and many others! so the search for a great brunch spot continues…
