If you are an enthusiastic Korean
fanatic, Taft Avenue is a MUST visit place for you. I have featured a Korean
Restaurant in my previous blog, SHP Bibimbab Cafe and Restaurant.
But for today, I will be introducing two of my favourite Korean café’ in the metro, Café de Seoul and
Noriter.
Café de Seoul
Café de Seoul is situated in Unit 12, 2/F One
Archer’s Building,
which is a block away from De LaSalle University. It is open from 8:00 am – 1:00 am during Mondays to Thursdays;
and from 9:00 am – 12:30 am during Fridays to Sundays.


What really stands out with their interior is that each table is equipped with a Samsung tablet wherein you can use to browse the net or even play with the games downloaded in each tablet. You can ask in the counter for the password so that you can access their wifi. When I first saw it, all I can say was “COOOLLL!”

With great
food and drinks, good service, and very accommodating staffs, no wonder I would
always and definitely visit Café de Seoul whenever I got the chance to stroll
along Taft!
Noriter
Noriter is located at 2nd Floor Reyes Bldg., Estrada St. cor.
Taft Ave.and they are open during Mondays to Saturdays, from 10 AM until 9PM.
For first timers, it may be hard to locate, it is situated the same building as
the Tapa King along Taft, walk straight beside Tapa King and look up and you
will see the Noriter signage, and if you see a stair by the door, then you are
in the right track.

While I was
wondering around, these cups really caught my attention. I was amused that there
were all hand-drawn by different costumers that went here.
You can also
choose if you want to sit on their chairs and tables, or if you want to feel a
bit Korean, you can choose to sit on the floor with a little side table for your
drinks and foods. But you can only stay for like an hour, in order to give way
for other costumers who would also like to enjoy the Korean style of sitting on
the floor while enjoying the food and company.
I have tried their
best seller Honey Bread, and some of their coffee. The taste is not that good,
but it was not bad either, but still I keep on coming back here for the good
ambiance and cozy feeling.
If you are in
Cebu, you can also drop by their branch located in One Acacia Place Unit 10-11 Arch
Bishop Reyes Ave Cebu City, and they are open from 11AM until 9PM.
