Korean style pizza vs. New York Style Pizza

While explaining to foreigners, Koreans declare Pajeon/파전 as similar to pizza ! But in fact this is totally different! Korean style pizza or 파전 is made up of onion, octopus, shrimp, and egg. They are mixed together and fried in oil. Usually restaurants serve it with Makgoli ( Korean rice wine). On the other hand, New York still is filled up with topping. It's mega sized and not sweet ;) the best place to taste it if you visit Brick Oven Pizza in Gangnam! Pajeon New York Styled Pizza at Gangnam!

Trendy restaurants in Seoul!

Seoul is full of trendy and western/European style restaurants. You can have pasta , pizza , curry , naan etc ;) or French style bread. I would like to introduce couple of them : Jenny's Cafe in between Hapjeong station and sangsu station line 6. It is Italian style pasta and pizza restaurants and some of dishes use wine as ingredients Mad for Garlic. It has franchises all over Korea. Beautifully decorated from inside. I will recommend to try their snow garlic pizza :) Gangnam station exit 12 branch is not crowded on Sundays ! Try your luck there
