Went out to the nearby shops to grab my lunch. Saw this small little eatery that's look really quiet and local and went in for my lunch. Ordered a Bibim guksu [ 비빔국수 ], which is a kind dish made with wheat flour noodles.
Bibim guksu [ 비빔국수 ]
The noodle came and the portion of the noodle was really a lot. The noodle was chewy and was cold. The boss actually rinsed the noodles with cold ice water after the noodle is cooked. Although the noodle look red and spicy but it actually tasted a bit sweet. The vegetables used in the noodles were really fresh.
Would actually recommended people to try out this dish especially if you are the kind that enjoy bibimbap [ 비빔밥 ] but do bear in mind that the sauce used in Bibim guksu [ 비빔국수 ] is not as spicy as the sauce of bibimbap [ 비빔밥 ]. Bibim guksu [ 비빔국수 ] is extremely popular in Korea especially during summer.
Went back to the apartment and slacked while waiting for the rain to stop. Went to Myeongdong [ 명동 ] to meet Vanessa for dinner. We decide to have Yoogane [ 유가네 ] for dinner.
Myeongdong [ 명동 ] brunch
To get to Yoogane [ 유가네 ] :
Myeongdong station [명동역] , Line 4 [ 4호 ], Exit 6 [ 출구 ]. Turn right after Uniqlo [ Uniqlo에, 우회전 ] Yoogane is on your left [ 왼쪽 ]
There are actually 2 outlets of Yoogane [ 유가네 ] in Myeongdong so you can always drop by the other outlet if the first outlet is full.
We ordered mixed octopus and chicken galbi [ 쭈닭갈비 ].
Mixed octopus and chicken galbi [ 쭈닭갈비 ]
The serving was big but it is a must that you had to order 3 serving if you have a group of 3 people. We had a hard time trying to finish the food as the serving was really big and we couldn't request for 2 serving since we are a group of 3 people.
The food was served and you do not have to worry about how you should go about cooking it as the waiters in the restaurant will help you with it and ensure that the food is cooked before they off the fire.
When we started eating, the octopus and the chicken had already absorb the taste of the sauce into it. And the first moment that you tasted it, you will feel that the spiciness of the food is acceptable, but as you continued to eat, you start to feel the spiciness of the food remaining in your mouth and it gets hotter and hotter for every mouth that you eat.
However, you will not feel any burning sensation inside your stomach despite of the spiciness. You can actually soothe the spicy taste by drinking water.
Yoogane [ 유가네 ] in Korea definitely taste better than the brunch in Singapore despite of having the same menu. And the price in Korea is much more reasonable. If you have the chance to visit Korea, do try out their Yoogane [ 유가네 ].
Walk around Myeongdong [ 명동 ] after dinner and bought some masks as most of the brands are having a 1 - 1 sales. Gotta myself 10 masks plus another 10 masks free. It's a must to replenish your facial stuff whenever you are in Korea.
Did not have much photo for this day. Will try to capture more photos next time.
