[ minibap ] korean food magnet


we've been eating our share of delicious food while living in seoul for the summer. among the many yummiez, we've eaten frypan (aka the best fried chicken tenders EVER), 김치찌개/kimchi jigae (aka kimchi stew) at this hotspot where there's always a wait outside, 부대찌개/boodae jigae (aka army base stew), 떡만두국/dduk mandoo gook (aka rice cake and dumpling soup) and the best 물냉면/moorl naeng myun (aka cold buckwheat noodle soup) in 신촌/sinchon.

my favorite, however, is 삼겹살/sam gyup sal. aka pork butt. ok just kidding. its pork belly. and it is oh-so-delicious. and my absolute favorite korean bbq meat. by far. there are lots of different styles of eating sam gyup sal - but they're all basically the same thang. and they are all yummy yummy yummy yummy good for my tummyyyy!

fell in foodlove with these minibab magnets while in 인사동/insadong today with unnz and umma gom. i had seen them last year but hadn't gotten the website or name of the store. and you can't really take pictures in there so i had to wait a whole year before seeing them again. isnt it so cute? i may have to go back and buy myself the magnet set above, complete with a side of 김치/kimchi as well as 소주/soju - korean alcohol, somewhat similar to vodka, often accompanying korean bbq. though i do have to say, the minibab phone charms are also quite adorablez.
