We love our desserts and we sure love Busan Baby, so we were super duper keen to hear they were introducing his girlfriend… Seoul Sweetie, a late-night dessert bar! Thanks to Seoul Sweetie for inviting us to their VIP opening week!

This is the same Matcha House previously on O'Connell Street. They have now relocated to Grote Street. We ordered the Matcha Waffles, our favourite as they were perfectly crispy on the outside, light and fluffy on the inside. The matcha lava cake was extremely moist, and sweetened to perfection; with delicious matcha that oozes out! The matcha latte and bubble tea are only for the extreme matcha lovers as they are on the bitter (and not very sweet) side. Service could be improved overall, staff that attended to us were quite rude and abrupt. When we asked if there was an option for shared plates, we didn't get a very friendly response.

From previous experience, 2nd & 6th was generally average with 1 or 2 dishes that stood out. A restaurant/bar with a great interior and atmosphere, but uncomfortable stools. Since they were offering a 50% off Dimmi special with a newly launched menu for winter, we thought we would give it another go. The smaller dishes - Baby Squid Tentacles, Grilled Haloumi & the dessert; Breakfast After Dinner, were the only likeable dishes. The duck was a no-go due to the sandy texture, with a medicinal aftertaste. Everything else that we ordered off the menu was just average, leaving us quite disappointed because the dishes were presented beautifully.
