Are you ready to post a strawberry picture on your Instagram? High-end hotels in Korea attract customers with strawberry buffets at the beginning of each year. Each hotel prepares buffet dishes as well as a variety of desserts made of strawberries. From the customer’s perspective, it’s good because you can take pretty photos and enjoy a luxurious life at the hotel at a lower price than a regular hotel meal. The strawberry buffet is hailed by those looking for Instagrammable experiences. Strawberry buffets are mostly priced at around 60,000 won, while typical restaurant dining at the same places would normally start at 100,000 won. Some hotels also offer 10 percent discounts for early-bird reservations.

Strawberry lemon mascarpone tart, dark chocolate mousse cake, white chocolate berry, etc.
Though some buffets stretch out until March or April, it is best to hit the buffets when the weather is cold. Most strawberries used for the buffets are greenhouse strawberries, which are at their best in winter.
