[1.1.2014] : WELCOME TO SEOUL!! WELCOME 2014! A brand new year ahead… starting this new year with people i love… Hellu first day of 2014.

Today is a public holiday.. around the world.. we can expect a lot of shops will not be open. So for today’s plan, walk around Seoul and hunt for korea street food. *slurps. We went to Myeongdong, one of the busiest street in Seoul.

Before we start our food hunting journey.. we went to this Ginseng Chicken Soup restaurant which we attempted to dine in the night before but it was closed.

A fair portion of side dishes..

and we only love this one. Marinated chicken gizzard.

We order 2 different Ginseng Soup.

AND LOVE THEM BOTH. The chicken is just so tender it can melt in your mouth. Not forgetting the bones. Just eat the bones!! *oh nom nom nom*

And the glutinous rice within, perfect

Ordered a korean pancake and it was moist and good.

The whole brunch experience was just awesome. Finger licking good!

Kampaiiiiiiiii………. Ginseng Soju…!!! Pour it in the soup or just drink it! Obviously we chose the second option!

Korea Street Food

Welcome To Myeongdong! And here, we fall in love with the street food. Slurps.

Hotteok. Leavened dough stuffed with sugar, ground peanuts, sesame seeds fried up until a caramel form in the center.

Tteokbokki. Old school rice cakes cooked with red sauce

Sausages and Tteokbokki. Great combination

Egg Bread. The most impressive creation.

SIMPLE YET DELICIOUS. Its like an egg muffin stuffed with a whole egg. Savory and sweet!

This one is just too hard to describe

Too many food. Too little tummy space.

Smoked octopus & squid

Fresh strawberries. Totally 99% sweetness

CUTE!!!! (did the video come out?)

We loitered at Myeongdong until late night. Doing the tourist thing and buying the tourist things to buy. Expensive chocolate and seaweed. 🙂

But night time at Myeongdong is spectacular. Dont you just love the chanel place.

We settled down our dinner at some random restaurant at Myeongdong… Reason is because we initially wanted to go to the night market but IT WAS CLOSED. SADNESS. 

We went to this restaurant at first… Looking at the juicy pork trotter. BUT when we walked in.. very rude services. We waited for quite a long time until someone came to serve us. We said we wanted to order the pork trotter. He say no.. then walk away… WTF!! we asked another waiter and the same thing happen. SUCH A BAD ATTITUDE! So we just walked out from there. BANNED!!!

We then walked in another restaurant that seems very local. hehehe! a lot of local people eating inside means good food.

The service was good. 

We ordered the signature ribs with tteokbokki i suppose. Suppose to be a portion for 2 BUT…

Say real real!! SUCH A HUGE PORTION!!!!!! *horror*

Side ordered Korean Pancake but the one we had earlier on was better.

Boiling beef soup

And that concluded our happy dinner at Myeongdong

Reach our hotel early today because most of the shop were closed. FIRST DAY of 2014 ba… But always happy to see my keren. Muahs!

We decided to bring keren for a stroll since it was still early. Hello!!!

The feeling of holding a bear and running around the city of seoul is just so much fun! AWESOMENESS!!
