Ham and Cheese Baguette in the French Village
Whenever I am in the French Village, I try and make it into the Paris Croissant for a Ham and Cheese Baguette.

It is the only place in the city that will do it to Parisian specifications. The bread is crusty with a chewy interior. There is a bit of butter smeared on both sides and there is just ham and good cheese. It’s a perfect light lunch for 4,000 won.
