I've loved Korean food since I first got there.

I understand kimchi is really good for your gut flora. I’d like to try it sometime but then I remember how bad our house smelled when Mom made sauerkraut.

It is a bit of an acquired taste, but once you get to liking it you eat it up. Imagine being on a bus full of people who just had kimchi, as is all-too-common in Korea. LOL Plus, there are many kinds of kimchi, not just the cabbage type.

Just watch out for that “thinly sliced beef” they talk about.

I saw dogs already butchered for sale when I was stationed there but that was a LONG time ago.

I usually get bulgogi with all the little side dishes.

I was thinking of opening up a North Korean restaurant, wouldn’t have to server any food.

And nobody could ever leave.

My favorites are cucumber and radish. There’s also garlic, which you can imagine... lol.

I like the little strips of fish you get as a side dish. My wife likes Daikon kimchi.

When I was in Korea, a Korean American soldier took me beyond the shops that served soldiers...and to this large open sided tent with people standing at counters around the perimeter. The grill was in the middle. Sort of Korean ‘fast casual’. I have no idea what we ate, but it was really good.

My first time there I was at I Corps (ROK/US) Group which was half Korean soldiers and half American. Many of my Korean officers took me home with them for dinner.

For every jobs article I post I don’t post 30 or 40.

I have never tried Korean food. Actually never lived anywhere there was any to try.

I used to work at a Summer resort which had around 40 Japanese students for around a month. The last day they were there would be Japan Night. They would prepare a Japanese meal for everyone.

Several of the dishes were excellent. I liked the rice balls and the chunks of chicken cooked over a flame on a bamboo spit.

On the other hand, they made something out of seaweed which was awful. I noticed many of the American students backing up to a garbage can and while no one was looking, in would go the seaweed.

Fried kimchi on a hot pastrami sandwich has been invented in my kitchen and it’s real good.

Korean barbeques are becoming popular. Your table has a grill in the middle and an exhaust fan blowing full blast right above it. The servers bring thinly sliced cuts of meat, then you and your party grill ‘em up according to your taste. Yeah, you’re doing your own cooking, but at least you don’t have to scrape off the grill after you’re done. ;)
