Alice

Seoul

Locating this trendy spot inspired by the classic Lewis Carroll tale is an adventure in itself, involving white rabbit signs, a flight of stairs and a secret door at the back of a flower shop in Seoul’s Gangnam district. Once through it, you enter a sophisticated and comfortable wood-panelled sanctum where the cocktails will transport you to a wonderland all of their own. Debonair owner Terry Kim and joint head bartenders Mason Park and Leo Kim concoct suitably imaginative seasonally varied creations such as D.O.K (soybean baste, butter whisky, amaretto and maple syrup) and Bamboo Forest in Winter (leek tequila, celery vinegar and preserved vegetables) from a fun, accessible but perfectly balanced menu.
