A place called Sweet Park has opened at the Express Bus Terminal. It gathers a whole row of dessert counters in one spot, and I think this concept might be a first in Korea. It is big, too, and it got a lot of attention.

A place like this

SHOTO is here too.

And Koun Kounn as well..

It is a fairly Instagram-famous shop, so however they managed to line it up, that is quite the feat.

A bakery

Pierre Marcolini

Borissou Paris

This is today’s target. The main shop is in Cheongdam, but I hardly ever have a reason to go to Cheongdam.

Choryang Ondang’s Choryang Mammorong

The line at this place was seriously long. Not something I could even dream of..

Caramel sandwich cookies

Ichiran ramen

This one is not Sweet Park but inside the Shinsegae department store. Anyway, I was surprised that they sell Ichiran ramen in Korea too, so I took a photo.

Pretzels

A place like this has opened as well.

Lenwich

index caramel

A dessert shop

Steamed bun set

And on and on, there were all sorts of places, but whether every one of them will do good business is anyone’s guess.

Canele

Well.. it is not bad..

Chausson aux pommes

It is an apple pie.. but somehow there is a taste of red ginseng in it.. I think it was cooked down too far..

Baguette

This one is genuinely delicious. It was good enough that I doubt I would find better bread even if I went to Paris. Of course I probably felt that way because hard bread is my sort of thing, but if they make it properly like this, I am happy. It is just the price.. the price.. does it really need to be this expensive..
