T-dog and I have been frequenting the Royal City Farmers Market this summer. The last time we went we had the best snow cones ever from Frostbites. It has still been pretty hot lately so it was the best type of weather to have one. Now these are not your kiddie snow cones from yesteryear […]
Update: This restaurant is closed. For the month of August, The Urban Tea Merchant is offering a petite afternoon tea service for $20 per person. Now afternoon teas are never enough food for a guy so I made Fannypack go experience this with me. The regular price for this service is usually $28. Now I’m […]
Trusty Congee King is a franchised congee house in Hong Kong. It was a great quick and easy place for comfort food. This place seems to be known for using a fish stock as the base for their congee. While we were in Hong Kong I stayed with Fannypack at her place. Coincidentally it was […]
A mutual friend of Fannypack’s and mine was visiting from out of town and Fannypack had the task of choosing a place for dinner. She then of course passed it on to me even though lately she’s been eating out way more often than I =P. Upon googling I came up with Merchant’s Oyster Bar […]
Hitman and I first heard of the concept of cat cafes about a year ago. He read about them in one of those free daily papers and became really excited, and we planned on visiting one in Asia someday. Then we sorta forgot about it for a while. Then, on Fannypack’s and my last day in Seoul, […]
One day on our way to Bo Laksa King’s we drove by the bright yellow awning of Tamam. Hitman caught the text reading “Fine Palestinian Cuisine” and we were instantly intrigued. We took a look at their menu online, and found enough items of interest so we made a date to go there for lunch. […]
My quest for Mister Donut did not start out great….first of all the location listed in our tour book was no longer around…and Googling did not help either. So basically I had given up on the first night. The next morning we were on our way to Insadong. Fannypack suggested we take a walk to […]
I actually cook more often than this blog would have you know. I enjoy cooking, and I’m proud to say that more often than not, my creations are edible and actually yummy. You see, I’m the type to just throw in whatever condiments/seasonings I have on hand in whatever amounts I think is right. I […]
During our stay in Seoul Fannypack and I took the subway a lot. It was the rather convenient way to travel around and it was a lot easier to understand too as they have the English names written on the maps rather than just Korean characters, which was the case with buses. And, as with […]
So…now comes the time of the main attraction…the whole purpose of our trip to South Korea. Prior to the trip we had researched just where would be a good place to have this sannakji: fresh raw octopus, the tentacles of which are served still squirming on the plate. It turns out, a lot of restaurants […]
