aussie table haeundae — Restaurant in Busan

Ate here this morning with my wife. I had the brekky (they’ve charmingly got the names right) and she had the Cheonyang Basil Pasta. My brekky was just right. I could have done with a bit more either of beans or toast or meat but that’s a tiny gripe. They oddly included guacamole but who doesn’t like guac?

Have eaten twice at this restaurant and think that it's good value for the food. The food is always really delicious and I also appreciated that there is salt (me liking my food salty more than average people) shakers and pickled cucumber slices available.

It might get a bit noisy at times in the restaurant because it's a very open area with the tables quite close together, but the restaurant is clean and well lit. I find myself thinking back on the food now and then because it was such a nice experience. I will definitely visit again next time...

Eggs in Hell - two poached eggs swimming in a slightly spicy tomato base topped with cheese

Truffle Mushroom Risotto - beautiful texture with a balanced taste

Followed our meals with a latte and flat white - milk temperature and texture perfect!

My wife and I remarked that the menu could have been from any of a number of our local cafes in Sydney. The standard of food was on par, if not, better.

We definitely will be dining in again during...
