day #4 in Seoul... Spring 2011

So we had dinner at one of my favourite places in Seoul - Tosokchon.

***The website is in Korean, so unless you can read that... well...... anyways.

Tosokchon is one of my must-go places each time i'm in Seoul.
Their Samgyetang (Ginseng Chicken Soup) is sOOOOoooooo good.
That whole spring chicken stuffed with glutinous rice, dates, chestnut, gingko... and that ginseng!!!
Made to a stew that's oh-so-tender... and oh-so-sweet!!!
Delicious!
Makes for a fabulously happy meal :)))
Well worth the walk from Insa-dong [past the Palace to the Chebu-dong]. In the cold hor! Helped work up an appetite that's for sure!
Not that we need much help working up an appetite here though... the girls and i have been eating so much!
I should probably find time to do a separate entry just on the food we've had (seeing as the food we eat are about the only kinds of photos i've been taking these days... besides, i've not actually been sightseeing. i has work you know.)
Anyways, it was a lovely evening with the sisters tonight.
Our conversation ranged from the benefits of ginseng (educational/ informational) to heated toilet seats (oh! wonderful inventions of mankind!) to singing the BINGO song (Louis-style. B-I-N-G-O and BINGO was his name-O!) to debating what to get the parents from Seoul (so filial. go holiday must buy present for the folks. ha).
It was a good Monday today.
No Blues to sing away :)
