Here’s a bold statement: South Korea is the world capital of fusion cuisine. Here’s a place to debate the assertion: Pizza Monster, an Italian-Korean mash-up that serves pizzas with, say, bulgogi beef, corn, sweet potato mousse and almond flakes on a black rice dough base, and carbonara with oyster sauce and spring onion. Crazy? No. Crazy-good. Pizza Monster is small, cute and chic, perfect for a pizza date with a difference. Try the Shark Attack cocktail for some pour-your-own theatre.
