Seungri BIGBANG's AORI Ramen

One fine cold day, craved for a real Japanese taste of ramen. By chance, my friends just told me about Seungri Bigbang new Ramen restaurant, called AORI when I search for the restaurant on the internet, I found the reviews are pretty great, so I said okay, let's go and try!

When I read the review, they said if AORI always has long queue even before they open (yeah, I think this makes sense, because of Bigbang fans is like all over the world and of course Seungri effect working very well for AORI promotion tools).

Well, I came around 12 o'clock (open hour: 11.30) and yes the queue already longer than what I think, we waited for around 30 minutes and finally, we can eat!

The restaurant has a unique concept, they just have one-person seat, Seungri said he purposefully made that concept because when people come solo, they not going to feel awkward because of they need to sit and eat alone.

At your table, you can find a menu list and some order paper (complete with 4 languages: Japanese, English, Korean and Chinese). There are just 2 kinds of ramen menu: 아오리 라멘 lite / AORI Ramen Lite (2 toppings: Charsiu and Green onion) and 아오리 라멘 / AORI Ramen (5 toppings: Charsiu, Boiled egg, Seaweed, Menma), then for topping you can order whatever you want to eat.

And I ordered the AORI RAMEN LITE + Charsiu (barbecued marinated pork) for extra topping. You can see in the pictures, the one with Boiled egg is AORI RAMEN and the one without egg is mine AORI RAMEN LITE.

How to get there:

AORI RAMEN / 아오리 라멘

7, Dosan-daero 57-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, Republic of Korea 06014 / 서울특별시 강남구 도산대로57길 7

Seoul Subway Line Bundang (분당선) to Apgujeong Rodeo Station / 압구정로데오 get out to exit 4.

Overall, I like the concept of the restaurant, we can go there alone without any awkward feeling, yet it does not feel hard to eat together with friends too and the ramen was amazing, very fit with my salty tongue. And if you fans of Bigbang, I'll I suggest you to come, try the food or maybe test your luck with accidentally-possibility to meet one or maybe all of Bigbang member hanging out at AORI when you come? Who knows?

HAVE A NICE DAY!
