Korea Trip Part 1


I think Koreans are an unlucky lot. (wun offend anyone rite?)
Unlike Singaporeans.
If you dun eat veggies, especially lettuce and cabbage, i would advise u to stay out of Korea.
Because Veggie is like their staple food.
I would choose to believe that they are VEGETARIANS in their previous lives.

They have very few cravings for food.
Even roadside stalls sell repeated things.... hotdogs, fishcake EVERWHERE.



Main course:
Either u get the steamboat or the BBQ style.
What vary is the meat, be it pork or seafood, seldom beef.
What u get mostly is pork or boar meat, as seafood is expensive in Korea just like beef.
Boar meat may taste a bit like beef, but you know u wun get beef because tour packages r never tt kind and generous.

Every meal comes with starters or u can call them "appetizers" if they appeal to u as some don't.
Every starter includes "Kimchi".
This never changes, only the taste differs from shop to shop.
So at the end of the day, you may be sick of Kimchi.
However, as tested, proved and recognised, Kimchi is a healthy food that contains 乳酸菌that kills bacteria.
Thus, if u are a very health conscious person, I urge u to consider Kimchi.


Though boring, Korea food is healthy...less oil, more veggie.
Thats why Uncle SARS didn't find them last last summer.

Oh yah, another thing to add.
If u don't speak Korean, better to follow a tour group.
Shopping may not be a problem.
Bargaining may not be a problem.
EATING MAY.

We had a chance to eat on our own one night.
Walk up and down the whole street don't know what to eat, many choices but couldn't understand a single word of them.
We dun want to repeat wat we had been eating all the while in the trip, in the end we went into a Jap restaurant.
Luckily an 欧巴桑 knew how to utter a few words of Mandarin.
Heng!
That was a over filling meal!
