Apart from liking K drama and the country scenery, I also fell for Korean food, I have not tried much palate like a foodie but here are some of my favorites:
- Korean ramyeon, a staple in my kitchen rack, just in case I have craving :D.
- Dukbokki aka Korean spicy rice cake, this is similar to pasta bolognaise sans meat.
- Japchae, Korean glass noodles, mix with veggies such as carrot, and meat/mushroom
- Korean fried chicken, if you like salty fried chicken; this is not for you because this KFC has a sweet taste added.
- Korean barbecue, meat or chicken wrapped in lettuce, I loveee it, it usually serves with kimchi (a must in Korean meal), rice, and a special Korean chili paste.
- Seolleongtang aka beef bone soup, yummoooo, the bone is cooked for hours to get the calcium and collagen out.
- Bibimbap, Korean mix rice, rice with beef and egg plus assorted veggies such as zucchini, bean sprouts, spinach, carrot.
- Korean shabu shabu, the picture speaks for itself.
- Dak jjim, Korean braised chicken stew with glass noodles and carrot, the taste is very similar to Indonesian “semur ayam”.
Some Korean restaurants I tried in Jakarta:
- Yakiniku Esina Garden (Japan, Korean bbq), Plaza Senayan ****
- HanGang ****
- Tobak, Jl. Wolter Monginsidi ****
- Mujigae ***
- Bon Chon ***
- Kyochon ***
