Bibimbop

As I promised, tonight for dinner, while doing laundry, we had bibimbop for dinner. It was the first Korean food I ever tasted (at a Korean place on University Pl. in the Village a few years back). It is basically a rice salad. To make, combined: fried egg, warm rice, some veggies and spicy sauce. Deliciousness ensues. Be sure to mix it before eating it. Then eat it with chopsticks. We went to a mom and pa shop and spoke to them and their daughter in English/Korean as we tried to supplement the daughter's English education. Apparently, English education is very good for writing, reading and grammar. Speaking is not emphasized as much. The food was served with kimchi, a miso-type soup, oshinko-type pickled radish and some spicy veggies. After dinner, as we waited for our clothes to dry, we shared a cup of soju (the rest of the bottle is in our room fridge).

Next lesson is on kimbop (bop means rice).
