KOREA 2024: (Jeju) 카페 해화탕 Haehwatang
[Travel in March 2024]
I saw this online and thought, “Wow, that looks amazing!” It was also listed as one of the most popular cafes in Jeju. So, of course, we decided to visit before checking in at our Airbnb! 🙂
There’s outdoor seat, but it was raining!
the first look, wasn’t that amazing as it was on photo hahahahahaha!
time to think what to order for the drink
While pondering, is the café the right one? Haha!
But I do find the sound of plates clinking together to be very soothing!
Considering this is one of the top cafés to visit, I’m wondering if it’s really worth it. Haha!
While waiting for the drinks!
In Korea, in spring its always strawberry latte. I love how they really put real fruit jam inside!
🙂
The colored glass panels look beautiful when the sun shines through them (but there wasn’t any sun).
🙂
oh the smoke activated!
They really look a lot nicer in comparison, haha!
seeee so pretty!
Okay lah, looks really not bad on photo hahahahaha!
There’s also a Cola Café next to it that looks pretty on theme, haha 🙂

HELLOSIHUI’S THOUGHTS:
I found the café a bit overwhelming and not as impressive as it appeared online. It is beautiful when the “smoke” is activated, but I’m not sure when that happens—maybe when there are more people?
HELLOSIHUI’S TIPS:
Arrive early to take nice photos; otherwise, it gets really crowded. However, if you’re alone, I’m not sure if the smoke will be activated.
