Dinner at Kimchi Restaurant


My Korean friends Sue and Jiwon have taught me a lot about their culture. In their almost one  week stay in the house, I have learned so many things about them which made me decide to study Korean language and explore more about their country. My interest in everything Korean is brought about by watching  Korean TV Shows specifically what we call "Koreanovelas" and of course knowing my dearest Sue.

On their last night here in Davao, Sue and Jiwon decided to have dinner at Kimchi Restaurant because Grace (Sue's former English Tutor) wanted to eat Kimchi Chige. Sue actually introduced the food to her way back in 2006 when she was still doing her volunteer job in KOICA. I got excited because it was also my first time  eating in a  Korean restaurant.

The food was all new to me but I  really enjoyed it especially the Kimchi Chige and Japche Bap. Only Sue ate most of the Bibim Guksu because its chili flavor is just too strong for the rest of us. The dining experience was really fun and very memorable for me because it was my first time eating all Korean food for dinner. The side dishes are unlimited and you can  order as long as you want. The owner are so gracious for  giving us  free slices of pineapple for dessert.  

It was such a super fun night and was   made even unforgettable because of Sue and Jiwon's  presence. It was my first time eating Korean food in a Korean restaurant and definitely not the last.

Pork Bulgogi by Sue and Jiwon

Pork Bulgogi... Sue's Recipe

Jiwon, Myself and Sue
My visiting Korean friends Sue and Jiwon wanted the family to have a taste of Korean food. And during the very first day of her stay here in Davao, Sue went to a Korean grocery store to  buy some ingredients for her Pork Bulgogi recipe amidst the rain and the flood.

According to Jiwon and Sue, Bulgogi recipe can either be pork or beef. This is one of the very common and also a popular  Korean food because it is  easy to prepare.  Together with Bren, Sue marinated the pork lean meat  with Bulgogi Sauce, more onions, garlic and other ingredients.This can also be mixed with your favorite vegetables and can also be grilled or stir-fried.

Although  we wanted to have this during our dinner the other night but since we are soaked wet in a heavy rain, Sue let Jiwon cooked it this morning. The taste is good and the meat is so tender. It has a perfect blend of sweetness and spiciness.  The whole family really had a good  day because we started our morning with this delectable Pork Bulgogi made out of love by Sue and Jiwon. Kamsa Hamnida!
