The food post

As requested by our dear foodie friend, Rob, this post is all about showing you what we’ve been eating. Bon appetit!

Juk
Juk is rice porridge served in a variety of ways. Pictured here: juk with seafood.

Banchan
Banchan are the side dishes that accompany every order. Kimchee (spicy, fermented cabbage) is a staple.

Kimchee stew
It’s a spicy as it looks!

Dumping soup
Dumplings were (sadly) not filled with meat.

Omelet over rice with sausage
I don’t really know what to say about this one, but I think a joke is in order…

Tofu stew
We were surprised the stew came with small shellfish–but were lucky to be able to order anything in the first place (see the menu picture that follows).

Menu
As Rob requested, a photo of a menu–this restaurant only had the menu posted on the wall. Would love some translation from my Korean friends! We ended up ordering the tofu stew from our Me No Speak book. Since the owner of the restaurant was nearly blind, we got help from a neighboring table, full of giggling Koreans.
