Bread Comma 빵꼼마 - Yeonnamdong Hongdae 연남동 홍대

Check out My Youtube Channel!

Bread Comma despite the ridiculous name is a really cool cafe that is located in Hongdae's Yeonnamdong.  Yeonnamdong is a really cool growing area with a ton of cool restaurants, cafes and bars.  You should definitely check out this area is you have not already.

Bread Comma has two locations that are right near each other.  The first location is a book cafe that has books all over the wall and tons of space.  This is one of the widest cafes that I have ever seen.  It is a cool atmosphere as does the one that is right down the street.  The second one has really high ceilings and a second floor where they sell specialty teas.

The thing that really stands out about Bread Comma is the cakes which are absolutely delicious.  I have had the tiramisu, the grapefruit cheesecake and the chocolate brownie and all are absolutely delicious.  These are for people with a real sweet tooth as I do.  They do not hold back on the sugar in this place and that is just the way I like it.

Come check out this cafe and have a couple of the cakes the next time you are in Yeonnamdong.

Gordes - Chain Cake Place

Gordes is a chain cake restaurant that has locations at least in Sinchon and Myeongdong.  Their cakes are quite a bit better than a lot of the other big places like this and that is how Gordes made it onto this blog.  I recommend looking for the Gordes in your area and going over and giving them a try.

I have had several of the cakes in this place and I have enjoyed all of them.  The one that I used to get all the time was the banana cake which was kind of like banana bread with cream between the layers.  This was always my favorite, but I haven't seen it in a while so I think it may have gotten replaced with another type of cake.

There are also several fruit tarts which are all great.  The two that really stick out in my mind are covered in either grapes or berries and have a cream base and a pie crust.  This last cake that I had was a mix of chocolate and cream with pieces of black cherry in the center.  It was a great mix and absolutely delicious.

The final thing that is really cool about this place is that it is a cake cafe which means that you can order only cake and no drink is required as it is at several other cafes which saves a bit of money.  They also have a bread section, but I have never tried any of it, so I cannot comment on its quality.

The Bread Blue 더브레드블루 - Sinchon's Very Own Vegan Bakery 신촌 채식빵집

There used to be two vegan restaurants in Sinchon, The Bread Blue being one of them and the other being Loving Hut.  However, Loving Hut closed down and only The Bread Blue remains.  Rather than being a full on restaurant though, The Bread Blue is a bakery.

Let me begin by saying the bread that you find in Korea tends be a little bit different than what you find in the west.  The bread over here tends to be a quite a bit sweeter and extremely light and airy which is fine, but sometimes you crave your good old western bread that we westerners grew up with.  Although the bread and The Bread Blue is not exactly like the bread that you are going to find at your local bakery in the west, it is a whole lot closer than the stuff that you'll find at almost any other bakery.

The bread in this place is absolutely delicious.  It is think and there are all different kinds of cookies and cakes to focaccia.  Moreover, a lot of the breads at this place are also unique.  There are some that are made with actual vegetables, vegetable pastes, beans, olives or other types of things that you wouldn't expect to see at a bakery in Korea.

This is probably my favorite bakery in the area, and I frequent it for my morning snack, something to eat or to go with meals.  In addition to the excellent quality of the bread, this place also has a pretty reasonably sized cafe that has a nice and quiet atmosphere that would be good go with a friend or to study.  They also make a variety of drinks, but I have never tried any of them so I cannot comment on their quality.
