Korea Day 7 (Insadong > Korean BBQ > Incheon Airport > Home)

After checking out the hotel, all of us squeezed into a cab and headed down back to Insadong where sells the most Korean souvenirs.
 
Before we start our last day souvenir shopping dash .......we had breakfast @ Paris Baguette.
 
How can we not have Paris Croissant/Baguette while we are there in Korea!
  
Paris Croissant Breakfast
 
Paris Croissant (파리 크라상) founded in 1986 is a upscale cafe version with made-to order items, drinks, catering, and overall feels a tad fancier compared to many other bread cafes.
Paris Baguette 파리바게트, the younger sis of Paris Croissant is a huge Korean bread and confectionery chain.  We saw them everywhere in Seoul and they have branches around the world.
 
  • The overall ambience, service, variety and food for a bread and confectionery café was 8.5/10.
  • Luv the sandwiches in Korea. (Not just from Paris Croissant) They always go with fresh lettuce, crunchy pickles & mustard sauce.
Insadong for Souvenir Shopping
 
You will discover many interesting art/murals within the Ssamziegil building, walls, benches, cafes, shops, stairs and toilets.
(Miu likes the monster window in the toilet but was afraid to sit inside. It's one of her fav pic cos of the monster)
  • As we are only left with 2 hrs to shop and lunch, we rushed through, Ssamziegil, the lanes & shops.
  • And of cos, our last buy of the PooPoo biscuits.
  • We also bought some Korean snacks @ 7-11 cause no time to go Lotte Mart
 
Korea BBQ Lunch
 
From Insadong, we walked 5mins to Gwancheol-Dong where our concierge recommended.
Indeed....there we were spoilt for choices on food restuarants. Aiyah! Why we din know this place earlier!
 
Anyway..... We finally get to eat Korean BBQ & Beef!!!
  • The meat weren't as thinly sliced as we expected but the experience of the BBQ and food was good!
  • As dear have to carry the sleeping Myn, he has to eat what I creatively wrapped for him. (lettuce, bean sprout, sauce, kimchi, etc).

The BBQ meal was a nice closure to our trip and we rushed back to hotel as we exceeded half hr than our planned time. Luckily, the Airport shuttle bus arrived in less than 15mins time. (no time wasted. heeeeee)
 
At the airport, time was limited. Straight check in, buy some bread & milk from Paris Baguette and head for boarding.

Again.....7hrs challenge to keep the kids entertained and quiet.
Esp this one. Climbing up & down and going to the toilet ALL THE TIME! Dirtying the floor & chair. Lotsa nonsense cum Big nuisance!
But we are glad to have her in the trip. Had a good bonding time with her.

We were Home Sweet Home before midnight =O)

Below are the buys for my girls.
Poor thing..That's all I got.
 
Look at my sis's.
