Can we all collectively promise to gatekeep this place ๐Ÿซถ Every drink I tried was a hit. Light drinks were crisp and clean, richer drinks had a full bodied flavor and a creamier mouth feel. Double chicken WHO On the menu, they specify which cocktails are stronger and sweeter. Every drink I gravitated towards was high on the sweetness axis but even then they found a way to calibrate the sweetness level so that even the โ€œsweetestโ€ drinks were not too sweet ๐Ÿ™‡โ€โ™€๏ธ Definitely try the NAENGMYEON (sooo unique and refreshing) HADONG FESTIVAL (strong matcha flavor with a creamier texture because of the red bean) OEDO BOTANIA (light and floral) Skip the food (the fried chicken had a somewhat thick and gummy coating that was far from delightful) Service was just fine because it took a while to get them to take our order. A tad pricey but kind of worth ๐Ÿ™ˆ
