Seriously, could Seoul use more Italian restaurants? According to one dedicated Neapolitan gourmand, the answer is yes.
?A lot of places [in Seoul] they don?t match -- the name is not Italian, the food is not 100 percent Italian, they make it fusion,? says Maurizio Ventrone, co-owner of Apartamento, the latest Italian restaurant to hit Seoul?s trendy Garosu-gil.
?Not to put anyone down, of course, but they just don?t work in my opinion,? continues the 36-year-old cautiously. ?That?s what makes Apartamento different. It?s the real thing.?
Ventrone opened the eatery with his Korean business partner, Jin Hong, last March. Hong manages Apartamento?s finances while Ventrone works as creative director.
