On this coldest day in December...

Sun, 12/09/2012 - 19:50 — foreignerjoy


From what my friend tells me this is the coldest day in December that Korea has seen in 27 years. That not only made my eyebrows raise but at the same time give me chills. Temperatures in the teens usually doesn't come around till January. But it looks like things will "warm" up next week, a bit.

To beat the cold my friend and I enjoyed watching a movie and TV in the comfort of my warm home. For dinner we had homemade bulgolgi and japchae, with lettuce for wraps. It was a warming meal and also quite wholesome.

Throw some of this stuff together, and chop up some vegetables....

It’s your party, but please learn to hike first.

With about 70% of the Korean peninsula covered with mountains, the hiking culture dominates the the Land of Kimchi. I went for a short hike up Mt. Dobongsan near my home a few weeks ago. I have a ways to go if I want to start calling myself a “hiker”, but here are my thoughts thus far…

Hiking in Korea is reminiscent of attending an epic college party.

It is imperative that you…

pre-game. (Who wants some morning makgeolli?)

My Favorite Restaurant: 서울깍두기 in 남포동

Sun, 11/18/2012 - 21:53 — tgates209
Seolleongtang, my favorite!
Seoul Kkakdugi (서울깍두기) in Nampo-dong (남포동) is my favorite restaurant in Busan.  There are a few locations around town, but I always go to the one near my house.  Just a 5 minute bus ride and I'm there.  They serve a small menu of soups including Galbitang and my favorite - Seolleongtang.

Kombucha in Busan

Sat, 11/17/2012 - 18:53 — rphofer

I looked for Kombucha in Busan for a couple months, but I had no luck finding anybody who was brewing it.  I finally ordered a starter from the USA and it's growing nicely.  If anyone needs a starter mushroom, just send me a message with your email or phone number.  I live in Gwangan and work near Seomyeon.  I'm excited to finally be making Kombucha and I want others to enjoy it too!

A few weeks ago was October’s Birthday Party for our Kindergarten classes, and this coming Friday will be November’s Birthday Party.  This means lots of pictures, fried chicken and kimbap for lunch, Birthday cake, and a ceiling full of balloons.

Dear Korea #077 - A Lesson in Moderation

Mon, 11/12/2012 - 00:01 — NabiChan

Dear Korea #077

Yay for a new comic! Also, yay for Pepero Day (even though it was technically yesterday)!

For those of you that don’t know what 빼빼로 (pepero) is, it’s basically a cookie stick dipped in chocolate. Many of you might be more famiiar with the Japanese version of the same snack, which is known as Pocky.

Snacks

Wed, 11/07/2012 - 19:08 — jmslesin

When I go to new countries, I love wandering around their convenience stores or supermarkets.  I love seeing what people eat and what kind of snacks they enjoy.  I especially love the snacks that are ‘weird’, or at least new and different to what I’m used to.

Disappointed over Durian

This year’s Philippine vacation, the first thing that my husband looked for was durian. He had never tried the fruit and he was very curious about it.
