Galchi Jorim Street in Namdaemun Market, Seoul

Wed, 01 Jun 2011 13:49:00 +0000

Let me introduce you to my double personality, Yoda-po who tends to ‘surface’ whenever I lost my already-not so-good writing inspirations. I’ll step aside and let her reign for this post for Galchi Jorim street. Out of word. Can’t think good. So forgive me. But it’s good food, I promise you. 7th April, 4 degrees […]

Street Food in Seoul, South Korea

Tue, 31 May 2011 14:47:00 +0000

To describe street food in Seoul, I would use the words ‘colorful’ and ‘abundance’. Of course when I said colorful, I didn’t meant they put a lot of artificial colorings to them but because of the varieties. From meat to pancakes, japanese styled snacks like tempura and takoyaki to European styles crepes, bagels and sandwiches […]

Lotteria, Korea’s version of McDonalds

Wed, 25 May 2011 14:31:00 +0000

While lots of tourists are concerned about cost of food in Korea, I found this to be the least of my worries. My suggestion would be, Go Fast Food, Go! But wait, Koreans don’t go to McDonalds on first thought of fast food, but Lotteria, their very own brand of fast food chain. With burgers’ […]

Sun, 15 May 2011 13:16:00 +0000

Weeks before Seoul trip, I found out BBQ, especially when it involves beef, is expensive in Korea, even for Koreans. I frowned at the prices I found online. That was, before I came across this blog thenatstory.com, which told the story of cheap, good, all you can eat BBQ in Seoul (Sinchon area). With the main population […]

Window shopping in Dongdaemun, Seoul

Fri, 13 May 2011 17:29:00 +0000

I just noticed that we had quite an eventful second day in Seoul from the interesting National Museum of Korea and food hunt in Noryangjin to Gwangjang market. The only place that smeared our itinerary, is unfortunately the highly anticipated Dongdaemun. Note that this is only in my opinion because I was looking for a […]

Gwangjang Market, Jongno-5-ga,Seoul.

Tue, 10 May 2011 15:32:00 +0000

Say what you may, but I’m totally merciless when it comes to food. I’m glad that Korea’s weather in early April had been very cold, made me burn the calories faster and I was eager to draw a tick on my food list – 3 full pages of A4 papers. A good place to hit […]

Noryangjin Fish Market is probably the highest peak of our food adventure in Seoul, Korea. In fact, CS has keep on saying, “Let’s go back to Seoul again next year, ok?

On our second day in Korea, we visited the National Museum of Korea, the 6th largest museum in the world – that surely means something. It was a 10 minute walk from Ichon subway station and we don’t have to find the place as hard as anywhere because.. we were accompanied by a hell lot […]

Two Two Chicken at Myeongdong, Seoul

Sun, 01 May 2011 13:38:00 +0000

I have never heard of Korea being famous for fried chicken but after reading some Korean food blogs, I was convinced to put fried chicken in my priority list. Some mentioned that Two Two Chicken serves one of the best ones and for that, I tried searching for its list of branches’ address but failed. […]
