Eating in Busan

Hello family,

This post is dedicated to the food that I have been tasting and experiencing. We didn't have much expectations for the dormitory food but it has been delicious so far. There is always a soup that comes with the meal. I love soup. I haven't taken as many pictures as I want of the food because usually I am hungry and I forget. =) No surprise there.

Below is a picture of lunch from the faculty cafeteria. The dorm cafeteria doesn't serve lunch on the weekdays, only weekends. Starting with the soup and working clockwise, seaweed miso soup, white rice, pickled beansprouts, kimchi, omelette with vegetables and bulgogi with onions, carrots and squid.







We left to visit the Guinness world record 2009 largest mall, shinganse (I think). It was gigantic. There are no pictures of it from my camera because our host said that you can't take pictures inside. I think there might be some pictures online. While walking all those square feet, we got hungry so off to korean bbq.





Then in honor of our first full day in Busan, our host graciously poured us some spirited beverage called soju. The soju was poured to each person according to age, the oldest receives the first, the second oldest receives the second and so on. I was in the top 6. =) It reminded me of Buddy and our China trip.



Cheers to you!
