Stick reviewed in the Korea Times Friday, June 23

My review of Stick, an Asian bistro in Ichon-don ran in Friday’s edition of the Korea Times.

Ichon-dong is the Japanese area of Seoul. The main street is lined with little Izakayas, all donning the iconic red lanterns. Sushi restaurants abound, and are, apparently hard to get into if you don’t have a reservation. One tiny Japanese grocery store sits at the end of the street, peddling Japanese miso, umae plums, and dozens of snacks to test out.

I think the review speaks for itself. This is a place to see and be seen. The food is passable, but more thought appears to have gone into the interior than ingredients.

If you are looking for a leisurely snack and a glass of Thai beer make a pit stop.
