Bar 420 — Restaurant in Seoul

I really liked this place. When I walked down the narrow alley off my hotel alley I saw the signage “Bar 420” with a pot leaf. I thought okay some Rasta bar to have a beer. Wow was I surprised to find a Portuguese wine bar with awesome food. If there is a Portuguese Seafood stew on the menus I am getting it. Turns out the food was awesome, the wine selections were good and the staff was super friendly. Probably spent more than I would have normally but I walked away...

I have to give it 5 stars, but it's in reality a 4.8. How many casual port wine bars do you know in the world? I know only one now. I was always curious about this place and in fact walked by it during day time (while closed) to see about it. I was even more hesitant after seeing where it was.

But then I went when it was actually open and can say that both the abidance and selection is amazing. I have many favorite seoul bars, but this is up there as one...

Little casual dining bar with a delicious Portuguese and seasonal menu + extensive wine selection by bottle including Port wines of course 😊 The food is excellent - the Romesco pork tenderloin is melt-in-your-mouth tender with a fantastic, peppery sauce, and the sweet potato cream pasta with chorizo is just as divine! We finished off with a sardine cheese platter of a generous portion with meaty, flavorful sardines that really remind us of Portugal....
