Just Food

Post-movie-watching dinner with the kids. Udong+Albab+Noodles.

Home-made brownies with cheese on top.

A slice of brownies....home-made edition.

100-meter from home.,,,Bapuri, a restaurant where we usually have our gimbab..김밥, cheese rapukki 치즈라뿍이 and other Korean food.

and...백짬뿡  or white champung...

Food Time @ Food Capital

It's dinnertime and we decided NOT to have our meal inside the themepark zone since it's surely expensive! Instead, we just walked out of the park....50.meters.away from.the entrance!!

..and we ended up.being.in.the.food.capital.

Had we known that there'd be this much, we'd have ordered 2 meals^^

Anyway...we had a great diner. Eyra ordered her all-time favorite: udong. Just look at the huge bowl she had to dig into.

As for her sister, 알밥 albab aka mixed rice with fish eggs. She's also.into this food.

As for me? I was hooked to savour the soybean sprout soup or kongnamulgukbab  (콩나물국밥) in Korean.

The perk of having the meal outside the theme park was that....we could buy this for only 5,000 won or $4.2. It would've cost us 8,000 won or $7++ inside the park.

This Japanese-style noodles cost 5,500 won. Pretty decent considering the vicinity of this huge complex.

So...there you go....we had our meals lightly.

전주콩나물국밥

So hungry after almost 2 hours struggling with the recording session at the studio.

Got one hour left before picking up Eyra from school and I knew exactly what I wanted to have for lunch: Jeonju Kongnamul gukbab or sprouts soup ala Jeonju.

Its price? Jusy 6,000 won complete with its sidedishes and all.

Since it's lunchtime...and it's fully booked...I sat on a lone chair .....facing the alley....with the advantages...of enjoying the people on the street. 

Gimgane.....Dine Out for Hungry Bikers!!

It's impossible to continue riding our bikes unless we had our dinner first. We learned that a nearby subway station was around the block when I noticed this familiar signage.

Yup...we decided to have our dinner at Gimgane.

We simply parked our bikes right in front of the restaurant.

Mom ordered seafood fried rice. Hmmmm looked so.yummy.!!!

"Can I have some, Mom?"

As for me, veggie gimbab was more than enough to satisfy my hunger!!!

Freya ordered 잔치국수 janchiguksu...

Which took.....a dear of time to.prepare.

As for Eyra, she didn't even budge...she prefered Udong....her favorite dish....anywhere.

Yup...she started digging in...as it arrived on the table.

Ok....eat a lot...and let's get back home by subway!!

Dine Out. . .and...

We ended up at Taereung Kuksu gori 국수거리 where lots of myeon or noodle or kuksu or 국수 restaurants lining up at both sides of the street. Ok. . .I ordered veggie mixed rice 야채비밤밥 which to mt surprise. . .was a self-service!!!

This was a paradise for a vegetarian like me. I didn't know how it worked but it's there. I just grabbed all kinds of veggiesI wanted for a mere 4,000 won.

It's so darn inexpensive compared to other places. ..where I could've paid at least 6,000 won.

Hmm..then I noticed that there are reasons as to why the prices at the restaurant was that cheap: one of them being all ingredients come from Cheollabukdo province vua direct trade. No imported ingredients found at this restaurant^^

Oh.h..there's even a self-service soup for every customer should they want it.

As for Eyra, she insisted on having a bibimkusu 비빔국수 which was super hot.^^. . .snd I ended up helping her eat it all. ㅋㅋㅋ

Right. . .that's the place. It's neae exit 1 of  Line 7's Taereung station. Just 15 minute walking distance from our home.

On our way home...I bumped into this...Cafe & Closet??????? Whatever that means.^^

Just what I needed!!+

Oops..I was so excited that I didn't take the picture correctly. I trembled...

I got to eat this Jeonju kongnamul kukbab to get rid of the shivering cold in my body. I didn't feel quite well....so...the idea of having this specialty is what came to my mind. And I did.
