Get Hearty Breads, Sandwiches, and Soups at The Baker’s Table

Micha Lichter of Germany started as a pastry chef at the Grand InterContinental Hotel in 1990 and then went on help open restaurants throughout Korea. He has since decided to settle down and do what he loves most: bake. He opened up The Baker’s Table, near Itaewon’s Gyeongnidan Street, in January 2012, and there is always a wide selection of crusty, homemade breads set on a large table. His focaccia topped with herbs and tomato is large and more delicious than many of the pizzas in this country. This is a good place for brunch as well, and I recommend their Farmer’s Table.

Two Hands Burger | 투핸즈버거
(Haebangchon)

Yep, this place located in Haebangchon is aptly named—you do need two hands to eat these burgers. The burger juice, condiments, and maybe egg yolk (or chili) ooze out as you take a bite. The patties are chargrilled, the buns are whole wheat and toasted, and the fillings are piled on just right. I recommend their mushroom burger, which has plenty of mushrooms and cheese, and their Le Vert Burger, which has bacon, egg, cheese, and veggies. Their seasoned fries make a nice accompaniment (that and a beer).
