June 15, 2020 Margarita Chappel

Discover Restaurants offering the best Italian food in Sokcho, Gangwon-do, South Korea. Sokcho (속초; (Korean pronunciation: [sok̚.tɕʰo])) is a city in Gangwon-do province, South Korea. It is located in the far northeast of Gangwon-do. Lying north of the 38th parallel, the city belonged to North Korea from 1945 until the end of the Korean War, when the dividing line between the two Korean states was officially altered. Abai Maeul was originally set up as an area to house North Korean refugees in Sokcho due to the separation of the two Koreas. Consequently, many of the population have relatives in North Korea. Today, Sokcho receives a number of tourists attracted by the closeness to the DMZ. The city is also a well-known gateway to nearby Seoraksan national park.

We did not particularly look for an Italian cafe but this place is conveniently located near our B&B, Casa Seorak. The place was quiet during lunch time but we loved the ambience in the cafe. There are tables both inside and outside the cafe. The price of the food listed is inclusive of an appetiser, salad, main & dessert. It is not too expensive considering the food that comes along the price of about plus minus 15000KRW. We throughly enjoyed our lunch.

Very tiny but very nice restaurant. The Korean lady likes having international people and can speak a little English. She is really lovely and her pasta are very tasty! You get one drink for free and average prices are reasonable.
