A Pork Soup Restaurant in Seogwipo, Jeju island
Although dwaeji gukbap(pork soup with rice) is prevalent in Korea, it’s challenging to meet a decent-quality one. Guided by a local in Seoguipo, Jeju island, I happened to have an excellent soup. It tasted simple, clean and chemical-free, but with the authentic flavour of the food. I guessed the cook understood well the pork meat […]
Marinated pork rib grill in Wontong
We were supposed to have dinner at a grill house in Wontong. Arrived but found it closed. We were to find another one.

Recommendable Tonkatsu House
Dongaseu(Korean name of Japanese tonkatsu) is like a must food for almost all Koreans. As the Koreans do love it so much, there are many dongaseu restaurants in every corner of Korea.

I think I was most satisfied during the moment because there were three bottles of Burgundy wine. Chicken in French […]
Enjoying country chicken in multiple ways
I bought ten chickens from the countryside. They were free-ranged. In general, free-range country chickens are very different in many ways from the mass-produced ones. As there were many, it was a perfect moment of enjoying in different ways of cooking: poaching, grilling, and in French ways.
Pork day
I’ve longed Kimchi jjigae with a massive amount of pork meat during the last five-day fasting and today had Kimchi jjigae for lunch and pork and onion duruchigi(stir-frying) for supper.
Chicken course
The day before my second son’s joining the army, my wife prepared a whole chicken. A half-wild hen has been sacrificed. Every moment of sacrifice, I had never been happy in killing something, but I try to get a feeling of a comfort, reminding the book, ‘Charlotte’s Web’. It must be the destiny of house […]
