Finally got the chance to taste the authentic Korean Cuisine in Korea.
They are not really much different from our local Korea restaurant, it is the local ingredients available in Korea which are not available locally here that makes the difference.
Food that you can find at normal food court:
Tempura prawn with curry and gyoza.... Korean food is largely influenced by Japanese food as well... but in Korea, any food must come with Kim Chi, the fermented chilli cabbages.
Fried Pork Cutlet rice, Korean people likes to eat rice a lot, their servings are really big. I heard the local said some of them maybe only eat one decent meal a day and other meals are much simpler and light.
Kimchi soup cold noodle.
BBQ drumlets.
Squid and caviar bibimbap (mixture of vegetables and squid and chilli sauce and rice.)
****************
In korea, most of their food are cooked in a pot. I think they are pretty lazy chefs, Lolz...., they just marinate meats and cook everything in a pot with only kimchi sauce or chilli sauce.
Ajuma (middle-aged lady in Korean language) is helping to stir the food in proper way.
BIBIMBAP, mixed every thing in a stone grilled bowl with chilli sauce, I personally like this Korean food very much.
Soup or BBQ or Stir fried, Korean Food is all about all in a pot.

It is such a luxury to have abalone in the porridge for breakfast, it did not smell fishy at all because of the fresh seafood ingredients.
The restaurant is just located beside a fishing port.
