Seoul Day 5 - Epic Shopping

Everywhere in Seoul, you’ll see Paris Baguette – a brightly-lit bakery with a wide variety of delicious looking pastries and cakes on display. It became one of or must-visit spot ever since the beginning. So on Day 5, we went to the nearest Paris Baguette for brunch.

Cutest coffee cup ever with Japanese costume! Somehow it made the latte tastes more bearable. Not sure whether it was the effect of the previous clubbing night or the latte really tasted like alcohol. Yikes!

Delicious bread!!!

Coffee and bun with the bff on a blissful morning. I wish we could do this everyday!

Bacon and egg roll da yums!!!

The sausage which I assume is pork is so much better than our sausage back here! Crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside. Malaysia, Y U NO HAVE PORK SAUSAGE BUN???

Egg and ham sandwich was yummy too! In fact everything there was yummy!

Proceeded to shop at Ewha Women University Fashion Street again after brunch. For the number of shops and the amount of cheap clothings, it has defeated all the other shopping destinations and became our favourite shopping spot.

Already bought one big bag of clothes from the first shop we entered! Wondered how the day was going to end. Tsk tsk.

The usual coffee break halfway through our shopping session. This time we tried out C’lucy.

They sell plenty of cake!

That awesome feeling when you temporarily escaped the winter and pampered yourself with a cup of hot coffee inside the warm café. I never knew that feeling until my Seoul trip.

Resting before continuing our mission. Gotta love the wifi in every café there otherwise I would be lost without Twitter and FB. Wtfreak.

Meanwhile these are our shopping bags. Madness! Now I remember why we needed a coffee break aside from the cold. I just couldn’t handle the heavy shopping bags anymore!

So many types of sausages!

Me likey ^^

I know it’s gross to say this but we always stained our gloves eating all these street food. The weather was just so damn cold we couldn’t possibly remove our gloves without our freezing our fingers! But it wasn’t exactly easy gripping hold of the snacks when we had our gloves on. Haiya wait till you go there and experience it yourself then you’ll know.

For dinner, we decided to enter a restaurant which was almost full. So many customers, for sure it would be good eh?

The Korean menu on the tissue box.

Requested for their English menu and thank goodness they had one. Unlike in our country, not every restaurant would provide non-Korean menu.

She was pointing at the extra spicy marinated chicken galbi. I don’t think we ordered that though, especially not after our encounter at Ebiko Curry XD

Yoogane’s marinated chicken galbi.

Can’t wait for it to be cooked! Whenever the waitress walked away, Katie would attempt to stir and cook it, then the waitress would come back after a while and do it instead, making her feel guilty for attempting to cook. But I told her the waitress must be the one feeling guilty thinking that she didn’t do a good job serving the customers lo. Teehee.

Our chicken galbi with add-on rameon!!!

Such humongous portion! We almost finished it cause it was so yummy! I’m not a chicken person but this one was tender and very well-marinated. Chicken has never tasted better!

More shopping after dinner.

This time we were at Hongdae – an area around Hongik University which was livelier after dark.

Somehow we ended up at Hello Kitty Café which we failed to locate the other day.

Pink pink pink everything pink!!! I’m not a Hello Kitty fanatic but still, I love this café!

But for a concept café like this, of course it would be pricey. We didn’t enter though since it was closing soon and we were still full after that giant wok of chicken rameon.

When I first saw this I was like holy shit is that a wolf?! But then it was so fluffy and cute and tame and all omgosh I just wanna cuddle it! The photo isn’t doing it any justice cause it looked so much bigger in real. Haven’t seen a dog like tat before.

Back to our hotel with big pile of shopping bags XD

Oh by the way, strawberry milk actually tastes good and not even a bit like the cough syrup I had when I was a kid.

Okay I know you can’t wait to see the stuff I bought. Lemme show you my epic purchase! ALL OF THESE IN 1 DAY!!! XD

Really, I have no idea how I managed to buy so much but I must say I am really proud of myself. HAHAHAHA. What’s more, none of them are impulse purchase and I like them all equally!

Katie’s purchase might seem very little in comparison but the fact is, she bought quite a lot too, just less crazier than me wtfreak. Mostly black because that’s her style at the moment. Teehee.

That’s all for Day 5. One day my epic shopping would become legend. . .waitforit. . . dary! LOL.
