[Cafe Review] Cafe Able 카페에리블 Garosugil

After a week of lonely suffering in my apartment from an eye infection and intense flu, I decided to treat myself to brunch. Scrolling through an article a co-intern from 10 magazine had written on the best brunch places in Seoul (link below), Cafe Able caught my eye.

Vibes

Apgujeong is notorious for having some of the most beautiful and popular cafes. The interior of the cafe has a whimsical feel with lots of greenery, flowers, and wooden furniture. 

Fooods

I ordered a French toast and Red Fields juice which has beet and apple.  The presentation was beautiful, especially the towering French toast. I was wowed by the portion size and the freshness of the juice.  Unfortunately, the French toast was rather unspectacular, especially the fruit that accompanied it.  The banana was unripe and the watermelon did not pair well at all.  

Final Thots

Some things were spectacular, like the juice and the atmosphere.  But the food that I ordered was not great, especially considering the higher price I paid. I still have hopes for this cafe. I definitely will come again to try the savory pasta dishes.
