Adjacent to our hotel was the Lotte Department Store, and on the ground level was a Food Avenue, where we visited for dinner one rainy day in Seoul, which was ideal because we didn't need to get out in the rain.
There were so many food vendors that I (along with everyone in my family) became overwhelmed. I swear I walked around the food court at least 3 times, and I finally settled on some huge Mandoo, since I wasn't that hungry.
They were excellent!
Other eats were:
Gyudon |
Gimbap |
Tonkatsu |
There are surprisingly very few seats for the number of eateries in the Food Avenue, so finding seats for our family of 5 was quite the challenge, but we staked out some seats and watched them carefully while each person in our family went to look for food one by one (people kept trying to sit in the empty seats we saved).
All entrees come with banchan as well as a packaged cup of water.
There is a water station where you can get a sanitized cup and fill it with water.
We also bought lots of sweets for dessert and future snacks.
It really was a sweets-lover's dream, as they were so many cookies, cakes, pies, brownies, and more at the various vendors - it was a sugar rush!
On our last day in Seoul, I bought some Gamza Batt, a type of potato bun, because I would always see lines of people for this snack, and it would often sell out.
The options are dizzying at the Food Avenue, but it is definitely a must-visit!
