I ate crab pasta and pizza at this brunch cafe overlooking Daecheong Lake. The food itself was decent rather than exceptional, but paired with the sweeping lake view, it made for a pleasant half-day outing. The cream cheese garlic bread was a standout from the bakery selection, while coffee was average and the latte leaned more milk than espresso. More than ten semi-feral cats roam the outdoor seating area, adding charm, though they can be persistent about food and combine with summer insects to distract from the meal. The narrow, winding access road is challenging for inexperienced drivers, and parking fills up fast on weekends, so weekday visits are recommended. After eating, a short walking trail below the cafe makes for a nice digestive stroll. Cherry blossom season reportedly transforms the approach road into a stunning corridor of blooms.
