Wobbly matcha soufflé pancake at Tortoise, up the hill in Haebangchon

Self-paid. The blogger paid for this visit.

A quiet, Kyoto-style dessert cafe above the Haebangchon crossroads, run by a soufflé specialist. Peel the wrap off the matcha soufflé pancake and the cream slides down over the soft, jiggly cake.

말차의 쌉싸름함과 크림의 달콤함이 입안 가득 퍼지는 순간

The moment the bitterness of matcha and the sweetness of cream fill your mouth.

Skip ifYou do not want a climb or a wait. It is uphill from Haebangchon, and there is a line even on weekdays.

Good to know

  • It is about a 20 minute uphill walk from Noksapyeong Station. A short taxi or a green village bus to the Haebangchon crossroads saves the climb.
  • There are plain and mochi-topped versions of the pancake.
  • If the first floor is full you will be sent upstairs. Wait a bit if you prefer the ground floor.
  • You get a turtle plush as your order number.
  • Last order 20:30.
