Did you ever think that you could have a working oven assembled on a street cart? One that could produce freshly baked yummy cakes? One particularily memorable street eat Fannypack and I had in Seoul was a snack made from one of these incredible innovations….
This trip to Korea was one fabulous foodie trip as I did not stop eating. One of our most memorable meals was in Insadong for a taste of Korea’s soy marinated raw blue crab gaejang. Yes, raw crab. Please don’t be squeamish. This was probably the yummiest meal we had. We had pinpointed a restaurant […]
It was really nice to not have a set schedule when you’re on vacation. For our Korean trip, Fannypack and I have an understanding that it’ll be relaxed, not having to rush to sight-see and make time. Some may think it’s a waste of a plane ticket, but we didn’t feel that way at all. […]
When Fannypack and I were deciding where to go for our next vacation, I had already forcefully told her that it would be an eating trip for me, therefore we should go somewhere with good food. Hitman and I had previously discussed whether any Korean restaurants here serve sannakji (live octopus)…and after conferring with my […]
We actually had my birthday dinner the day before my birthday, since Dark Table wasn’t open the day of. So the day of, we went out for a less planned out but no less extravagant dinner. But it didn’t start out that way… At first, Hitman wanted to take me to the rice cake cafe […]
My craving for a good galbi-tang has resurfaced recently…and I’ve been trying to find restaurants locally that have it. Somehow I came across the lunch menu at Potter’s Garden on Urbanspoon and they do have it at a decent price (around $8) so I made a date with Hitman to go check it out. Only […]
My first encounter with ho-dduk was around 5 or 6 years ago at the Night Market in Richmond. It was by the same clan that now does the hurricane potatoes and fish waffles. They made fish waffles back then too but no hurricane potatoes. I got one because it was only $1 each and I […]
Another night in the States, another Korean dinner. This time Aunt Aggy took Mom and I to a new place. Ka Won is another favorite of hers. All of the Korean restaurants she’s taken us to have been Mom and Pops type of places. I like the ambiance of this place more than New Seoul. […]
Update: This restaurant has closed. Kyung Bok Palace of Lansdowne Mall in Richmond had been offering a “5 items for $19.95” menu for quite some time now. I’ve always been meaning to go try it. Finally I went with Fannypack to go try it out for lunch. This menu is offered until 4pm each day. […]
“Berry Good…it was…Very Good!” – Boyfriend That was how he suggested I start this post. Anyways, feeling like dessert one night, I looked around Urbanspoon and Dinehere to see what dessert places are located in Richmond. Berry Good got pretty positive reviews from most everyone that reviewed. So naturally I decided that Boyfriend would accompany […]
