I know my korea related posts are constantly very long, but I HAVE to share this with you! I decided to do this post mostly, because I'm a big fan of korean food and I don't know if you know the typical korean food... soooo have fun reading it. ^o^
BTW a lot of pictures I took were food pictures! I think I took more of them as I took from me xD
So today I start to introduce you to some restaurant food (I had to cut it down in categories so it wont be too long to read for you):
We were at a lot of restaurants...I don't know why, but maybe because we were at lunch or dinner time always somewhere else or it was too much of a hassle for Gayoungs mum to show me around, go shopping and then cook. I mean I didn't want to be a hassle for myself and I didn't wanted her to be under pressure to cook food just for me. No I was alright with what I ate in the restaurants! :)
Lets's start with Mr. Pizza! The logo looked a bit like "Pizza Hut" in Germany. *haha*
All members of 2PM had a special pizza
(and very handsome photos for this advertisement!!!). I think Taecyeon's pizza was the most popular among them..
So we tried the Taecyeon-Style pizza. We had a different one too, as we were 2 times at Mr. Pizza, but I can't remember what pizza we ate then.
Taecyeon pizza photo vs the real thing = Looks excactly like in the picture! So yummy!!! When you order a pizza you get a sauce too AND free water!! It's the average way that you get free water in every restaurant you go to in Korea - it's different from Germany where you have to pay to get water...--'
Doesn't look the pizza delicious?! *_* Turn back time for me! I need this pizza NOW PLEASE! >.<
In the evening we met some friends of Gayoung and went for some Chimaek (Chicken + Beer = Chimaek). I love chicken and it was so yummy and so cheap! It's also very popular to go out and have this with your friends. Why can't you offer so good chicken in Germany Mr KFC?! Go and learn how to make good chicken, like in Korea! Uhm.. more.. what is KFC when you can go for THAT chicken?! D: They know how they do it, exactly right! Yes yes!
When you are in Korea then TRY IT OUT (and when the weather is so warm as in the time we went to have some, then sit outside! It's more fun to watch the other people walking by! ;p ) !
Favourite food: (SAMGYEOPSAL)! You can eat it in Germany too, but that's more expensive than in Korea (around 11-15€ -__-). So visit a good korean restaurant and taste it. You can choose between so many different things, that I'm sure you find something what suits your taste! I think I will eat it this weekend....mmmmh >_<
Looks great, huh? A lot of beef, then pickled onions, salad and a great cold soup were served...
As I was with my fried Youngseo in Lotte world, we decided to have a typical meal for lunch!...Crap.. I forgot what the name was...Nevermind, let me explain what we had done: You wait till the soup is cooking and then put the meat and the vegetables in it. Kimchi will be served everytime as a sidedish, you never have to order it ;D
On another day Gayoung and I stayed the night in an old korean guesthouse in Seoul (we were sure we wanted to go drinking, so we just stayed the night in Seoul and not driving 1 hour back to Incheon) the next food we had was Bulgogi..Yeah we had it as our lunch, because we slept too long to have a big breakfast. *haha* Shame on us Gayoung ^.^
As I told you before in my Post
Visiting Taeyong & Imjingak I wrote about the Menu we had with Gayoungs Grandparents and Parents. I wish I could turn back time so I could eat it a second time. So here again the whole Menu:
So it was 도토리 묵 그리고 김치 (Dotori Muk and Kimchi) nomnom...
There were a lot of 김치 그리고 열무김치 (Kimchi and Yeolmu-Kimchi)..After I tasted this Kimchi I really loved it. I mean okay.. I loved it before, even the supermarket Kimchi what you can buy in evey Korean Supermarket here, but...it was really unbelievable great!
That was it.. my little Post about the food. It's not all the food I had, but I really didn't want to Post everything I had.. ;D *haha* As you all know, I'm without laptop and photoshop at the moment, but I'm sure that I will post something. Look forward to the "So much good (korean) food! ~ Pt. 2" when I tell you in a short Post how the homemade food of my friends Mum was! *__* >>
Now I will go out and have some Samgyeopsal..*haha*
Have a great evening!
