I heard about this from a foreign food blogger who review the pastries and I wanted to come try them, so I visited OUR and I am quite attracted to the place. It looks so clean and sleek from the outside and the interior has so many wood elements and looks so minimalistic, looks like a nice place to chill and enjoy the pastries. There was quite a queue so I decided to go with takeaway. I walked round the pastries and picked a few, the one which was reviewed sometime back was the Mugwort Herb Injeolmi but I didn't see it available. I bought the Dirty Choco which was their signature, and the kaya croissant and the injeolmi cream croissant. The Dark Choco was not too bad but the outer layer was quite thick of the choco powder and the interior seems a bit dry without much cream. Too much of the choco powder until it felt kinda choking. Pretty much similar for the injeolmi croissant, but this was slightly better as it was a little more creamy inside. I'm not sure if the hype was the Kaya croissant because it sounds more gimmicky in Korea, it was the most creamy of the lot but then I didn't enjoy it because of the thick coconut shreds on the croissant. Just felt so bad I felt like I was having a sore throat after I swallowed it. Had to drink so much water to like flush the coconut shreds down the gut. Too much and too dry. I was expecting it to excel in the kaya jam inside the croissant and not using the coconut shreds on the croissant to pass off and label it as "kaya". Not sure about the beverages but the pastries really have lots of room for...
ย ย ย Read moreAt 8/30 we went to this bakery, ordered a coffee, royal milk and 2 breads. At first I gave the staff 5000, and he said itโs not enough, because I mistake the 5000 bill and 50000 bill. So I switched to a 50000 bill to the staff, then he told me he had no change for my order ( the amount of the bill was around 26000) but he took my 50000 bill and returned me 5000 bill instead of 50000 bill. If our order cost more than 20000, and if we only paid 5000, why on earth he told us he had no change, it made no sense. And he insisted we could only pay on card. We tried to communicate with the staff that we would pay with card without no problems but he should return my 50000 billโฆ.eventually he earned 45000. THIS IS FRAUD. I guess he just made a bet since we are tourists.
The coffee was awful and milk tea was full of sugar, we didnโt...
ย ย ย Read moreA very famous bakery/cafรฉ located in Apgujeong area. Now they also do a franchise, so you can see their shops in some department stores. But, still this is their main shop. The bakery has various famous menus, so almost everything is certainly delicious. However, I didn't liked their coffee, because it was to sour for me. There are some tables in the cafe, but it's always crouded. The biggest table has four chairs and most of the tables are for two people. The place is tiny and already crouded with their workers, so it's better to just take out...
