♥8 Jiyugaoka

Jiyugaoka (Seoul. Apgujeong Rodeo Street)





Was walking along Apgujeong rodeo's street, which was really quiet for a saturday afternoon, and stumbled upon Jiyugaoka cafe which stood out with its colourful decor and furniture. 

Always inspired by chalkboard drawings (:




 



 Loving how they lined the shelves with colourful toys and knick knacks, giving off a slightly swedish feel.

 
 Didn't have a proper look at menu, just selected from the cake display
 


 
 Malcha (Green tea) shiroi cake 말차 시로이  ₩ 8,800 

Green tea sponge cake with marscapone? cream. The cake was pretty tasty, with a good green tea flavour matching nicely with the cream,  the only drawback was the price.

 Loved how they made the extra effort to use caramel sauce to do plating nicely .

 
 The yellow wheelbarrow matched with the mini orange chair was so cute (:

 The "garden/backyard" feel of the outdoor seating with the artificial lawn and metal garden furniture.

 

 Continuing my walk around Apgujeong, I stumbled upon another branch just opposite JYP entertainment, this branch offered pasta and other mains as well. 

After some googling, realised that Jiyugaoka is a cafe chain from Japan.

Loved ♥
The bright and cheery furniture. 
The cute knick knacks lining the counter and shelves.
The cake and the plating.
