Café Mamas

One of the hottest spots in the Korean blogosphere in recent years, Café Mamas is a brunch restaurant credited with popularizing ricotta cheese salad and green grape juice, two of its most popular menu items, amongst the neighboring cafés and restaurants. They open early in the morning to cater to hungry office worker during the week, and sell to a crowd of mostly couples and young women on the weekends. Regardless of the time or day, Café Mamas is a delight to all. Its assortment of casual food like paninis, sandwiches and salads may not be groundbreaking but the food exudes an almost rustic, homemade quality seldom seen in Gangnam. Small and cozy, they proudly displays the fresh fruit they use daily. Situated slightly off of the bustling center of Gangnam, Café Mamas is a handy place to visit when searching for something more than what Gangnam's crowded chain coffee stores can offer.
