Dosoon

Dosoon is a compact bistro hidden along a Sinsa side street, with an open kitchen and wooden tables setting a warm first impression. Watching the cooking up close suits the slow pace of its lunch course.

The good-value Italian course moves neatly from a fresh appetizer to dessert with a homemade feel throughout. Soft ice cream finished with olive oil and black pepper made a simple, memorable ending; the room is best suited to two or three people.
