Cheap, nutty iced Americano and a cheese stick cake at a takeout window near Itaewon

Self-paid. The blogger paid for this visit.

A tiny takeout coffee bar on an uphill street across from the Lebanese embassy, with mostly standing room and a couple of benches outside. An iced Americano is ₩3,500, and the cheese cake comes wrapped like a candy bar so you can eat it on a walk.

My friend said coffee this good at this price makes no sense.
