november 15 // korean bbq restaurant
korean students invited me to a korean restaurant. i’ve been to this place before, but this time was more about gaining experience and knowledge of cuisine (and eating too, obviously).
i tried 삼겹살 (pork belly) and 닭갈비 (stir-fried chicken). 삼겹살 was cooked with mushrooms, pepper, aubergine, sausage, sprouts and onions. the meat itself is fatty and all these ingredients are fried with a big amount of oil. so this dish is not a diet-friendly, but delicious.
and i love korean restaurants as they have a self-bar (셀프코너) where you can get as much side dishes as you want. there were kimchi, a special sauce for meat, jalapeños peppers, radish, seaweed, salad leaves. and a big pot of rice, of course.

It is usually served with a side of moju which is a low alochol drink prepared by boiling makgeolli and other medicinal herbs.
2. Dried Pollack Soup

3. Soup with Congealed Oxblood
Although the name of this soup doesn’t sound appetizing, it has a mild acquired flavor. The texture of congealed oxblood is smooth with the texture of firm pudding. The soup stock is made by boiling ox bones and is seasoned with soybean paste.
4. Pufferfish Soup
Pufferfish has to be prepared only by licensed chefs who have received intense training to eliminate the toxin from the fish. Most restaurants offer this soup in spicy and non-spicy version. Usually, the non-spicy version is preferred for those seeking to chase their hangovers. This dish is especially popular in Busan.
5. Pork Spine Soup
This is a rich and spicy pork soup with meaty chunks of pork spine. Another name for this dish is gamjatang. It is usually served communal style in a large pot an is dished out into individual portions in earthenware bowls to make sure its piping hot until the end of the meal. Local usually mix the rice in the broth while enjoying this dish.
6. Golden Freshwater Clam Soup
This dish is a specialty in Gyeongsangnamdo Province. It is a clear soup made by boiling golden freshwater clams and simply seasoned with salt. Alothough the clams are small in size compared to other clam species but they are just as sweet and release lots of flavors to the broth.
