[Korea] Yummy Korea Street Stall

★★★★★

$$

If you watch Korean drama, you will see the Koreans often go to those street stalls under the red tent along the road. These red tent food stalls serve similar functions as Hong Kong's Dai Pai Dang, where nice convenient fast food is served.

The ambiance is one of the main selling point in this red tent stalls. Cosiness and crazily nosy ambiance are what people like about this street stalls. Although the tables were tiny, we had a great time dinning and chattering in there.

[Korea] Red Mango

★★★☆☆

$

Since the first day I knew the word Froyo, I have been told about Red Mango. While the American says Red Mango tastes so much better than the froyo in HK, Red Mango has no branch in Hong Kong and I could not try it or compare it to any other froyo store in Hong Kong. When I spotted this branch at Doota, I immediately ran into it and had my cup.

[Korea] Yoogane - Pizza-like Cheese Seafood Fried Rice

Price: $$
Cravingness: ★★★☆☆1/2

 

Last year when I was shopping in Myeongdong, I passed by Yoogane and saw a pizza looking fried rice on an iron plate through the restaurant's window. I dined in and absolutely like it. So this time I went back again for their lovely Chicken Galbi Fried Rice!

Yoogane worked by choosing the main ingredients on the menu, then ordered sides such as rice, noodles, dokboki (rice cakes) according to your choice. What's more, you can mixed different main ingredients together if you have a big group dinning in. It looked it is a DIY frying house, but no worries as the waiter will cook it for you. (I guess its because we are foreigners?)
