Korean Food
We ate out the first day at a restaurant near our house. We couldn’t communicate with them as they didn’t speak English, so we just pointed to pictures of food on the wall. The pictures you see on this page are of our first lunch in Seoul.
Yesterday, the director of our school gave us an orientation and also took us out to lunch. It was very good and a lot of food! We didn’t even need dinner! We ate stir fried chicken, cabbage, rice noodles, seaweed and chili sauce. You take the pieces of chicken out with your chop sticks and place them into a large leaf of lettuce. Then, add a bit of bean sauce, a garlic clove or green pepper and stuff the whole thing into your mouth! We had sides of kim chee, of course, and seaweed soup. It was delicious!

Awww, Megan is wearing a scarf -- I hope it hasn't been TOO cold! I've been thinking about you guys, and am very excited for you, that you get to have this experience. It was great to see you again Jay, I know how much you miss me, and it was good to finally meet you Megan! I wish you guys the best in this, and look forward to many more posts!
I used to read about how kim chee was made a little bit differently in each family, and then put in jars and buried in the earth to ferment. YUM! I don't care what anyone says -- it is stinky but delicious!! Love the posts and pictures!
Hey Jay... thanks for all the pictures of the good food... You're so lucky
[...] I never had a desire to try kimchi before. My sister, Deverie, often had kimchi in the fridge at home but I never considered it. When I came to South Korea about five months ago, I officially tried it with some galbi and loved it. [...]
