Our first Korean lunch was absolutely delicious. After spending Saturday morning talking "business" with our assistant principal, he offered to take us to lunch (again, something we were told would probably not happen). Christopher and I struggled to keep up with Mr. Kim as he walked the streets in our neighborhood - we've noticed that in Korea people walk very quickly and with a purpose, something that I love and Chris is having to get used to. We were approached by a tiny woman who was talking very fast. She practically pulled us into her restaurant which was fine with us because we didn't know where else to go. Mr. Kim decided we would all have Kimchi Chicken (good thing we like chicken). The food came out within minutes and was piping hot. The entree was served with four side dishes (panchan), rice, and kimchi stew. It was a huge meal! Everything in Korea is served "family style" so we all just dug in.

OK ... I see the chopsticks, which I am certain were there just for the picture. Where were you hiding the forks?

Oh wow! You guys are going to have to learn to cook some of these things. I have no idea. I couldn't even guess as to what was in it.
I'm glad you enjoyed it.
i love the poster behind you two with the korean guys laughing at you.....hope the food was good.
Sounds like Mr. Kim is really trying to make things go smoothly for you. Glad you ended up in a happy place. It is always good to know the best places to eat. I am sure you will find a favorite local place you will visit often---maybe this is it! Is Lauren carrying your forks in her purse?

Looks like your welcome has been very nice. It's great to see you senjoying everything that's new and different. Just a suggestion from someone not as trusting as the two of you...Be sure the chicken doesn't have whiskers. Take Care
