HALAL BURGERS & PIZZA (ITAEWON & DONGDAEMUN))

We are lucky as a Muslim community to have it's first HALAL Fast Food restaurant in Itaewon, near the mosque. It is actually located across from the main gate of Bokwang-dong Primary School...which nobody can miss out if they visit Seoul's only mosque - also known as Muslim Center or Islam Sawon (이스람사원).

The Halal Burger &  Pizza (P&B) shop is run by one of the twin brothers whose family hails from Iran, Turkey and Turkmenistan. The other twin runs the similar business with the name "Pizza Plus+"in Dongdaemun near exit no:5 - selling halal burgers and pizzas for past couple of years, serving Muslim tourists in particular.

Whether thin and crispy or deep-pan - what do you think makes the perfect pizza? For that go to this very clean and modest restaurant and check it out for yourself!

Prices are unbeatable ( 5USD or 5000 won only - cheaper than even 'Pizza School Chain' and quality is good for the price it costs. There are more vegetabes and olives alongwith cheese than you will get for the same price at other places.

I have tried their vegetable and chicken pizzas but have yet to try their burgers though. They have a long list of burger varities...

If you are in Itaewon area, check out this place for sure and if you are a student, simply don't miss it out!

How to get there:

Take exit 3 of the Itaewon Station and go straight until you reach the traffic signals. Follow the directions for reaching the mosque but instead of turning left on the road where the mosque is located, just go straight down the road and after a 3 minutes walk , you will reach the main gate/entrance of the school. Across from it is the P&B Halal Burgers and PIzza!

MUST Check it out!

Day in Pictures!

An extremely windy and chilly day and can't believe it's autumn - feels like mid winters, with a cold/dead sun and crazy winds.

Well, since it's autumn - so heaps of leaves being cleaned /vacuumed and packed in this huge sack and loaded on a mini truck! 

Truck/sack and the vacuums - the landscaping guys are wonderful and thanks goes to them for doing such a great job. Due to their hard work, we enjoy every season at its full - right under the nose.

 That's me..

Me again!

Hmmm...

All the rich colors of autumn- with trees taking on amber, gold and scarlet hues!

Pasha: A Turkish Restaurant in Gangnam

Pasha - The Turkish Restuarant in Gangnam has one of the best kebabs in town!

I ordered a platter of Pasha's assorted kebabs and lawasi with a soft drink. This menu comes with a choice of salads at the salad bar, desserts and soup...simply fanstastic!
Pasha is a halal restuarant.

My guests said that these were the best kebabs they ever had...made my day!
