Eat at the Hurwundeki Cafe

A pleasantly bizarre combination of Korean eatery and hair salon, the Hurwundeki Cafe is found under the railway arches beside Cambridge Heath Station on the borders between Bethnal Green and Hackney. The food was good, and distinctively Korean enough to be interesting whilst the interior maintains a charming eccentricity.


Your author will certainly never become a restaurant critic because he remains unable to recall the names of any of the dishes he ate, but they were good, and so was the wine which was BYO from a wine shop south of the river. However, the people on the next table were friendly and so were the staff, and there was an interesting and unexplained rack of old coats in one corner, so it is clearly a nice place.

  1. Readers should probably familiarise themselves with this before their visit: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimchi

  2. Ah, they do good coffee as well in the mornings. Have always wanted to try their food in the evenings.
