[The Financial News] "Even cherry blossom viewing is better after a good meal."
Dining Brands Group’s casual dining restaurant Outback Steakhouse has released a "Cherry Blossom Date Restaurant Map" that shows at a glance Outback locations near cherry blossom hotspots nationwide.
The map connects cherry blossom viewing and dining into a single course. It highlights major Outback Steakhouse locations across the country that offer convenient access to famous cherry blossom spots, so guests can fully enjoy the spring season.
According to Outback Steakhouse on the 4th, Outback Steakhouse Yeouido, located near Yeouido Yunjung-ro, one of Seoul’s best-known cherry blossom streets, is featured on the map. After a meal, visitors can enjoy a picnic on the lawn at Hangang Park or ride along the riverside bike paths, making for a perfectly planned outing.
Outback Steakhouse Jamsil and Outback Steakhouse Jamsil Lotte, which sit right by the cherry blossom-lined path around Seokchon Lake, are also included. From there, guests can easily explore the Lotte World area, making these locations ideal date spots in the heart of the city.
Outback Steakhouse Sinchon, where you can soak up the vibrant energy of spring, is another must-visit. Located in the middle of the so-called "street of youth," the Sinchon branch is perfect to visit after strolling along the romantic cherry blossom paths on nearby campuses such as Yonsei University and Ewha Womans University. It is considered a go-to cherry blossom date spot for couples in their 20s and 30s.
For those who prefer a quieter, more relaxed walk, Outback Steakhouse Yangjae, close to the cherry blossom path along Yangjaecheon Stream, is an excellent choice.
In Busan, Outback Steakhouse Haeundae has been selected. Located near Dalmaji-gil in Haeundae, it offers the unique local charm of enjoying both the sea and cherry blossoms, and it easily links with popular driving routes.
Outback Steakhouse Jungang in Changwon, South Gyeongsang Province, known for the Jinhae Gunhangje Festival, sits along the routes used by festival visitors. It is a convenient place to dine before or after viewing the blossoms.
Outback Steakhouse Daegu Jukjeon and Outback Steakhouse Daegu Hwanggeum, both close to E-World in Daegu, allow visitors to enjoy a theme park and cherry blossom festival together, making them ideal for a full-day outing. Outback Steakhouse Yuseong, located near the cherry blossom-lined roads around Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) and Chungnam National University (CNU) in Daejeon, offers views of spring scenery in a relaxed campus atmosphere.
Outback Steakhouse locations that pair well with spring outings also offer menus and services that enhance the mood for dates.
Signature steak dishes such as the "Black Label Steak," "Tomahawk steak," and "Garlic Ribeye" are well suited for celebrating special occasions. After taking in the cherry blossoms at night, guests can use the corkage-free service available at all locations after 8 p.m., extending the evening into an even more romantic time.
Guests can also enjoy spring outings with Outback Steakhouse’s menu outside the restaurant. Outback Steakhouse offers delivery and takeout for all menu items, so customers can savor Outback dishes while viewing cherry blossoms in nearby parks or outdoor spaces around the blossom spots.
An Outback Steakhouse representative said, "Cherry blossom season is a time when dining out and outings naturally go hand in hand, as more couples, friends, and families get together," adding, "We hope you will enjoy a gourmet experience that lets you carry the feeling of spring both inside and outside Outback Steakhouse."
