KMK: Cafe Nono

Tucked away in the streets of Samcheon-Dong awaits Cafe Nono. The Samcheon-Dong area is amazing with museums, galleries, and boutiques on one side and bordered by Kyongbok Palace on the other side. The cafe itself is housed in a traditional styled building complete with a courtyard which gives you a faraway lost in time feel.

This same mood continues inside and its like stepping into someone’s living room. It’s the perfect spot to settle down with a cup of coffee after a long day popping into galleries or you could just curl up with your favorite book.

Munchies like cakes and cookies can be bought, but I suggest ordering the honey toast: Thick slices of bread lightly toasted with honey drizzled on top along with a dollop of vanilla ice cream.  Order that with tea or coffee and you’ll never want to leave. And for those with a taste for something a bit more adventurous there’s a particular coffee that’s made from beans take from the droppings of a muscat. I didn’t try it but I’m hoping someone out there will report back.

I will say though that Cafe Nono is a definite yes, yes.
