Though I love Rain, Song Hye Kyo and especially Eun Yoon Hye, I've never been a fan of any Korean food. But oh, I love their noodles and coffee!
And so I must regale one awesome korean food adventure I had with my friend. 'Twas a tiring afternoon, painfully tiring I so can't remember what I was exhausted for. And we had to process our travel insurance and find blue cross office. After processing everything, I asked my friend to have a stroll around the area, and try to find any Indian or Arab restaurant. We walked for hours and I was already feeling the madness of dehydration clawing at my skull. I couldn't take it anymore I had to throw up (im that sensitive ya know) somewhere dark where nobody could see me haha.
......And at the corner of that dark place we saw this Gangnam Style Restaurant.
We entered the restaurant and I had to maintain a facade of calm even if I knew I was looking like a possessed human already.
It took us an hour to decide what to eat, (30 minutes of remarks at how nice the place looks like, seemingly like a post modern kingdom in korea, and 30 minutes of asking the staff of this and that of the menu).
But ofcourse, I had to have a cup of coffee first to reduce stress and strain.
We ordered a bowl of hot and spicy beef stew. It was so hot and deliciously spiced up, all the stress in me was released.
We also had a set of korean grilled meat with six appetizers from kimchi, tofu etc. which we hardly touched.
And the real dilemma, what was we suppose to do with all the lettuce and fresh garlic served?So I asked the staff again for the umpteenth time.
And she said, you have to wrap the meat with the lettuce and eat it like this (she demonstrating it with invisible food)
Oh yah! I remember! that's how koreans eat such in koreanovelas! so should I use my bare hands to wrap the meat or should I use chopsticks?
Me, after a brain splitting headache all renewed by the food
See, it was dark there!
