 |
|
I know this topic's been dones several times, but I am just sick of the threads complaining about how Koreans have screwed up Pizza, Coffee, Beer and Bread.
There have to be some foods that you'll miss after you leave this country. What are they?
Me?
Stone bowl bibinbap (when it's done well)
Tak kalbi (chicken with chili sauce)
Those donuts the adjummas make on the streets.  |

Samgyetang (chicken broth with ginseng) is usually pretty good.
An occasional galbi or sangyeopsal meal is nice.
Kimbab's are handy as snacks or a small lunch. |

Same ones I liked outside of Korea, as well as a large portion of Korean food.
Oh, is that what you meant? What Korean food do I like....?

Roasted sweet potatoes ... they have them in Japan too, but they're not available ready-to-eat in my little town.
When I was in Korea I thought I liked sushi better than kimbap, but now I miss kimbap (the vegetable kind). |

| I doubt I'll miss 'em when I leave but I quite like yang-yum dubu, yubu cho-bab, andong chimdak, yachae chimdak, dubu jiggae, yukgae jung, sujaebi, lotus root and ko-dori. |

| I like meats and grains. But I also enjoy vegetables. And some fruits, fruits are good. |

| Persimmons are really good. I have to remind myself to take advantage of persimmon season now. And tangerines in both countries are very nice. |

| My school had strawberry jam and cubed ham (yes, together!!) sandwiches for morning tea this morning. But no gochujang in sight so I guess I have to be thankful for small mercies. I'm not going to miss a thing foodwise when I leave. |
