So, the husband and I have this new guilty pleasure. Anytime we have the opportunity we like to indulge in Korean food. Oh my goodness, it's amazing. We feel like it makes us feel closer to our little boy and it's amazing. Double win!
After we received our referral we decided that eating Korean food was the most appropriate way to celebrate.
If you haven't had Korean food, here's how I would describe it. First off, amazing. Secondly, it's nothing like Chinese food. (Though I love Chinese food too. ) Lastly, it often comes with sides.
I'll share some pictures of our food adventure. If you can't tell, we are such foodies.
This interesting drink is called Bubble Tea. We had never heard of it. Apparently it's popular in several Asian countries. It is a milk tea, whatever that means. I joke younot, the drink tastes EXACTLY like the pink bubble gum antibiotic from your childhood. For wes this was a dream come true. All of his hopes and dreams in one cup. It also has these crazy things called tapioca pearls. They have the consistency of a gummy bear, kind of. The straw was just big enough that they popped up in your mouth as you drank it. Talk about sensory overload. Definitely a fun experience.
I ordered dolsot Bi bim bap. Oh my goodness amazing. A dolsot is a giant stone bowl, which holds heat better than my hair straightener. Inside of it was rice, vegetables and delicious Korean style meat. It also comes with a raw egg that you Crack on top...the egg fries to perfection. The stone bowl literally cooks the vegetables and white rice to the most perfect crispness . It's heaven. I do warn you, my body temperature was probably at 100 degrees. Shew, I was roasting, but it was worth it.
I highly recommend trying Korean food if you've never experienced it. I look forward to our trips to Korea. We will definitely be adventure eating.
