There is a real honest to God Korean PC bang a block from where I work. And if you ever go to the farmer's market in Carp stop in for a pint and some kimchi at The Swan.

Is the PC bang that you refer to the one on Bank a block or two north of Somerset? I used to live on Somerset near Seoul House. A new Korean place opened just before I left on Bank by Catherine... Oh I miss Ottawa.

I'm going to be buried in Ottawa. You hear that, Mom? Bury me in Ottawa.


So, when's the burial, next week? Or are you going to wait until after the holidays?

Yeah. It's funny to be in Ottawa, waiting for my bus, and looking over and seeing "pc bang" written in Korean across the street. It's not like Bank @ Gloucester is Koreatown here or anything.

Yes the church is Korean too but the place I'm talking about is well up the street from there... Ottawa's "Koreatown"? That's really stretching it...

If you haven't checked them out already, there is now a ttakgalbi restuarant in Sandy Hill and a new Korean restaurant Alirang (somebody's already got the rights to Arirang) around the corner from the Bytowne cinema. Good soondae (which i don't think you can get at the other restaurants in town) and jjajjang, but the mandoo is so-so.

I would love it if they had a Korean restaurant in the west end.... delivery too. "Hello, could you please bring me some bulgogi right now?" Someday, maybe...

If you want to get any type of Government job in Ottawa, you need to speak at least "B" level French.

Not neccessarily, but it helps. Skills and clearance help more.
