Korean food
I moved last week. The experience was a pain in the butt, but I'm fully settled-in now and am enjoying my new place. This place is wonderfully convenient too, with lots of restaurants close by. I went to one a few days ago called Buk Kyung II, a Korean restaurant. Its my first time to any Korean place, as a matter of fact.
First up was this, which was an assortment of Kimchi's. From left, its daikon, cabbabe and cucumbers. Not bad.
This was quite good! Its fried pork pieces in batter, and the sauce was lovely. Its very similar to Chinese style pork though. The next few pics are blurry; I guess I was quivering with hunger which resulted in shaky photos.
Bibinbap. This was my dish. I came here with Korean friends, and at first I was a noob and innocently eating the ingredients in my bowl, seperately. My friends took one look at me, squaked "Nooo!!!" and proceeded to teach me the proper way of eating binbinbap.
Apparently, you are supposed to stir stir stir! There is hot sauce in a bottle that you squish over the rice, then, stir like mad!!! The dish is packed with stuff; beef, carrots, taugeh, mushrooms, fried egg, lettuce and rice underneath. It takes quite a lot of stirring to get everything homogenized and the sauce properly incorporated.
We had other dishes too; they all came out blurry, but I'll post one more.
Bulgogi. I tried this, it was good too. I liked mine best, as it had hot sauce!
