Songdo doesn’t get enough credit. Everyone in Busan knows the beach has been cleaned up, and the cable car is there, but the restaurant scene is still catching people off guard, and The Forest is a good example of why.

“On the Plate”, Paradise Hotel’s first-floor signature buffet restaurant, is holding a Spain Fiesta event through next month.

Dynamic Busan magazine has featured a dining column this month dedicated to different cuisines from around the world.

For tapas without the price tag, or a way to introduce Spanish finger food to a picky companion, check out The Tapas, a casual-fusion café on the quieter, western side of Hongdae Station.

This tiny eatery is tucked into a remodeled hanok near Gyeongbokgung Palace. With high plaster ceilings, wooden beams and barely five tables inside, the establishment could almost pass as the foyer of a private residence.
