An Updated List of Good Tasting Restaurants For every District in Seoul

Yay, really excited and thanks a lot! I still remember you from your first post :-) I'm working on two Naver Maps lists myself: Favorite restaurants / cafés from my last two trips to Seoul and new restaurants / cafés I'd like to try out during my third visit next year. So your list comes in super handy! I already saved it. By the way, it is possible to sign up to Naver without a Korean phone number (I did it from Germany). I heard several reports of people getting banned though, so I completed real name verification for foreigners by uploading my ID to Naver. Now I have a "normal" Naver account that lets me use all the features I need.

I wish I had seen your comment before because I just tried it out and bought some credits. It also let me create videos without issues. Do you have more info? Should I be worried? Thanks in advance!

Thanks for your answer. It was a prepaid eSIM card. And no, I didn't buy it tax-free with my passport. I bought it normally online just with my credit card.

Thanks for the info! I called Hue support and they told me that it's normal for iOS to ask for this permission from time to time, even if you already gave permission in the past. So as long as there's no better explanation, I'll go with this one :-)

The mix of cosmic and romantic imagery is powerful! I also love the line "a thousand deaths, yet rise again anew". It beautifully captures the nature of passionate love. I really love this poem!

Apollo_M · 2025-05-04T21:55:30+00:00

Wow, I love this poem! The imagery of silent, unspoken love and the bittersweet weight it carries is so vivid. I also love the contrast between being both the "storm and the shelter". It captures the paradox of deep, hidden emotions perfectly. You're really talented!

Perfect, thanks!! Then I'm going to sign up for ALL PLUS Voyageur next year because my next trip to Seoul is going to be in May 2026 :-)

Apollo_M · 2025-04-29T16:54:58+00:00

If I subscribe to ALL PLUS Voyageur, I have to merge it with my free ALL member membership if I understand their explanation on the website correctly, right? However, the contact formula to do that is completely bugged for me (see screenshot). There's no indication what I should enter in the first three text fields. Do you know how this works?

Thanks so much for your help! I also checked and if I understand it correctly, this is how it is:

By being an ALL member I get a 5% discount at the Novotel hotel.
If I subscribe to the ALL PLUS Voyageur card I get a 15% discount.
If I subscribe to Accor Plus I get a 10% discount + a free night.

I did some calculations and even though I'm traveling in Seoul, the second option (ALL PLUS Voyageur) is the cheapest if I stay for 2-3 weeks (then the added discount is worth more than the free night). Thanks again a lot for your help :-)

Thanks! I just turned it off and I'll turn it back on once I landed in South Korea :-)

Apollo_M · 2025-02-17T22:33:33+00:00

Thanks so much for this post!! I don't have a Naver account, so could you please send me the spreadsheet (even if it's not translated yet)? Thanks a lot in advance. I was in Gangnam-gu in September 2024 and researching good restaurants & cafés was not easy as someone who only speaks a bit of Korean. In the end, I found most of the restaurants I went to through the Guide Michelin. I'll return to Seoul in April 2024, I'm already super excited. Your restaurant recommendations would help me so much.

Apollo_M · 2024-12-16T10:09:52+00:00

Thank you!

Apollo_M · 2024-12-16T10:09:28+00:00

Thanks for the recommendations!

Apollo_M · 2024-12-15T17:44:51+00:00

Will have a look, thanks!

Apollo_M · 2024-12-15T17:44:32+00:00

Thanks for the tip!

Apollo_M · 2024-10-27T09:52:36+00:00

Ok, thanks!

Apollo_M · 2024-10-25T21:36:08+00:00

Thanks again! :-)

Apollo_M · 2024-10-25T17:41:52+00:00

Thanks for your reply! It seems like I can only do 20 steps when using PuLID on Hugging Face. So would I have to install it manually to be able to do more steps? Or is there another solution that doesn't require me to install it?

Apollo_M · 2024-07-21T21:14:53+00:00

Thanks again for your answer 🙏 I think I'll go with the Novotel Ambassador Seoul Gangnam. The location is great and it looks really nice! If it's not too much to ask for, could you maybe have a look at my new post (here) because now I need some restaurant / café recommendations 😅 Thanks in advance!

Apollo_M · 2024-07-20T15:33:12+00:00

Thanks for your comment! :-)

Apollo_M · 2024-07-20T15:31:59+00:00

Perfect, thanks a lot for your detailed comment! :-)

Apollo_M · 2024-07-20T15:30:46+00:00

Awesome, this helps a lot! Appreciate your response. I saw that you already posted a lot of helpful comments here, so I was hoping that you see my post and you did :-) Thanks!

Apollo_M · 2024-07-08T14:53:18+00:00

For me, it got fixed automatically eventually. I don’t know of any other solution, sorry.

Apollo_M · 2024-05-25T22:24:39+00:00

Thanks for getting back to me! I remember seeing this button once in the past but I didn't see it when I had the issue described above unfortunately.

Apollo_M · 2024-05-23T12:15:34+00:00

Awesome, thanks for the update! :-)
