Baguette K in Yeoksam is a bakery I went looking for when I was craving some hard-crusted bread. It has a bit of a reputation.

Baguettes…

Breads

Banana cream

Menu

Sandwiches

Baguette

For Korea this is genuinely well done… but it fell a little short of what I was hoping for. I suspect it’s because bread hard enough to break a tooth would never be popular in Korea. Really just a matter of my own taste..

Banana cream

The banana cream, though.. it tastes like it goes straight to your waistline, but it’s really well made. If you’re curious, give it a try.
