For lunch, we went to Three Broomsticks. This rustic tavern serves pretty good food I may say. We ordered their Spareribs Platter, Fish and Chips, and Rotisserie Smoked Chicken Platter and they were all good. And oh, loved the interior of the place.
Gossam Naengmyeon (고쌈냉면) is one of the place that I usually go to for a quick and cheap lunch. They have multiple locations and I've been to the one in Ewha University Area & Sinchon area. They're (obviously) specialized in Naengmyeon, but their Bibimbap is also good too. And when you order either one, it comes with a side of beef.
One thing that our class ended up doing every time we finished an exam, go out for good food. For our end-of-midterm celebration we went out to eat Pork Bone Soup (감자탕) near Grand Mart around Sinchon area. According to my Chinese friends, this place is pretty popular amongst the Chinese. The food was definitely tasty, price is reasonable, and it's not as spicy at it looks :)
Earlier this year, I went to Orlando, Florida for our yearly family vacation and spent our time mostly on theme parks. So to kick off the travel series, here's our lunch at Bubba Gump before we began our day at Universal Studio. Having been eating a lot of Korean food lately, I have to say these look pretty good right now :)
Chuncheonjip Dakgalbi Makguksu (춘천집닭갈비막국수) is one of the popular places around Sinchon area to eat Dakgalbi. The food is good and the price is affordable too (costs around 6000-8000 won per portion). This place is also popular amongst the locals and also tourists, so if you come here, the staff can help you order too (I think they can speak basic phrases for ordering in Chinese and Japanese). We ordered the cheese dakgalbi and it wasn't too spicy. So for those who can't handle spicy food, this would be a good choice.
After ordering, the staff brought us banchan and we waited for a couple of minutes for the food to be ready because it involved a couple of steps when they cooked the food. First they put all the food items on the grill pan, mixed them when they're cooked, and added cheese in the end. But they pretty much did all the cooking. So all you need to do is sit back, relax, and wait for the food to be ready.
