I've now travelled to Seoul enough that I have some favorite spots - places I always return to during my visits.
One is an optical shop. I get great prescription glasses there (the Rx is taken from my US-made glasses) at an incredible price - and same day, delivered to my hotel the evening I place the order. My optical shop of choice is called Italy Optical in Itaewon, if you are heading to Seoul and want to check it out...
Another must do (or must eat?) is Jonny Dumplings, in Itaewon. Oh, Jonny's. It was profiled in Time Out Seoul! (Time Out Seoul Review). It is tiny, always packed (prepare to wait for a table), no-frills, cheap, and delicious. Here is a picture of what we ordered (you'll note that we polished off half the meal before we remembered to take a picture - it was just that good. Ooops!)
And, of course, a fine look of satisfaction for both myself, and my friend Jon, who happily delighted in sharing this treasure of ours...

I did make one other incredible discovery during this visit to Seoul, but that will be saved for another post...
Stay tuned for "The Naked Spa!"
