고기구이 or Korean BBQ

Let's talk about the Korean BBQ, or 고기구이^^

I find it extremely tasty and it's the prefect way to share it with friends while

talking and laughing or drinking.

For dinner I went in a typical BBQ restaurant in Gangnam with my friend, I

wanted to eat  Mul-naengmyeon (Cold noodles with chilled broth and ice)

and my friend wanted to eat BBQ..so we chose to go to this restaurant, which

cook both BBQ and Naengmyon.

The served us lots of 고기 (meat) such as: 갈비살 ( galbisal= beef), 삼겹살

(samgyupsal = pork belly)

etc...together with the typical and usual side dishes (반찬)..such as : 밥,

(cooked rice), guk (soup), gochujang , kimchi, mushrooms, shrimps,

soy,  and finally the Noodles

we ordered.

This is how the restaurant looks for inside, it's Always full so we had to wait a

bit before sitting inside. Those kind of "seats" have a special use hahah guess

what??

They are made for putting bags inside.

Almost all korean restaurants that serve grilled meat has a grill place at the

center of the table.

And...after the meat is cooked.. you will need to use a scissor for cutting it into

small pieces, prepare your chopsticks and...

 

 

 

 

voilà...ready to eat^^

Pieces of Korea ^^) Korean night^^

Talking about culture, and since just in some days will be the kick off of an

important cultural festival

in Canada, which I saw^^ It's called "Folklorama". This is the biggest and long

lasting festival ever!

It's a nice way for foreigners that live in Canada to join and to "remember" their

origins.

When the time of Folklorama comes, Canadians go crazy, litterally!! hahahahah

All people go the see the pavillions till late night.

There are lots of pavillions, different countries pavillions, and festivals (that

usually are dances, exibithions, typical dishes ext..) from 6pm till 1am.

I went there with my cousins, and I had fun^^)) bcos I could watch the

countries festival that I was

interested the most.

I saw many many pavillions such as: Korean, Japanese, American, Irish,

Ucranian, Italian, Chinese, Punjab, Philipino extext..

But! As you imagine I want to focus on the Korean pavillion.


In this pavillion, there was Korean typical dishes, Hangul writing, some

paintings, all under the music of BigBang "Tonight" xD

Eventually, there was the final show that consisted in the "Fans Dance", very

intresting. It was really impressive, hope to see it one day in Korea.

서울의 굉장 하루 ^^ Aesome Day in Seoul^^

안녕!! Hi Everyone((^=^))

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In Seoul, I met wonderful friends that as time goes by become closer and

 

closer. Most of people think that bcos of "different mentality and culture" can be

 

hard establish lasting relationships with foreigners. Well..in my case it's wrong!

 

Actually, in my case, I realised that Koreans aren't so different from us. Some

 

are shy, others are so lively and talkative kkk even more than me kkkk

 

So I was surprised but also happy!

 

I spent an amazing day with my friend that I call 언니 ^^ (in Korean it means

 

older sister, since she's elder than me :P) and she calls me 동생 (younger sis)

 

 

I really can't wait to meet her **

 

 

 

 

SELCA TOGETHER

 

 

 

 

 

 

When we meet, there was one of her friend that was also kind, so firstly we

 

went to Starbucks  (스타 벅스)  awww I love this place^^)) we chat chat chat a

 

lot, after 2 years without meeting we had so many things to tell each other^^

 

After that we went to visit the biggest and crowdest market ever, it's called

 

DDM (동대문시장 - Dongdaemun Market)

 

 

 

 

 

*But..I will talk about DDM another time ...*

 

 

 

 

 

Then, since we were hungry,  we deceided to eat supper at "ASHLEY

 

AMERICAN RESTAURANT" which is a well-known family restaurant in where u

 

can eat both Korean cusine and American cusine.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

After dinner I was soooo full, that I could explode kkkkk

 

 

*너무 많이 먹었다*

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We returned went to cafe and then...since we didn't know what to do after...it

 

was almost 10pm...we decided to play PocketPoll - kind or billiard. I never

 

played to billiard kkkk it was so fun Yayyy

 

but this wasn't the only time I played pocket pool. ^^
