One of the dishes I most looked forward to when I traveled to Korea was Budae Jigae. I know it’s not considered special by any means, but I am a fan of sausages and luncheon meat so this dish really appealed to me. If you don’t know the history of this dish, check out this page. Luckily there was a restaurant in the IFC Mall that specialized in it and I was able to try this dish out!
Before the stove was fired up…
Korean style Mac Salad – it did not taste good. Yes that’s raisin you spot in the upper left corner…
Kimchee Daikon – delicious! Winners in every Seoul restaurant I tried it in!
Seaweed Salad – delicious
Here is the budae jigae boiling away. I thought the dish was good but not great. We also paid extra for additional ingredients which included noodles and dumplings. Yum.
