Default Re: korean food renders all other food tasteless.

Traveling for work, I had a cold and went into a Korean restaurant looking for soup. I had eaten bulgogi and bibimbap, so I was not a complete n00b, but this was still one of my first times eating Korean.

I saw a beef soup on the menu, thought - perfect. So I ordered the yukejang.

I expected to get a bowl of brown broth. Instead I got <font color="red">red</font>. Glowing red.

Damn, that was hot. Took care of the sinuses, though.

Since then I have had that again, plus kimchi jigae, sun tubae jigae, etc. Good stuff.

KKF, all the food in the OP looks nasty, basically. But Korean BBQs are very good. Kalbi ftw.

Bulgogi (I'd spell it with a "P", but I guess either could be acceptable) isn't bad.

But if you hear the word "Day-gogi" mentioned in the kitchen, just drop the chopsticks, and get the hell out of there.

It's more of a "g" sound, not a "d" sound. If starts with "d" it actually sounds a lot like the word for dirt you can rub off your skin. I guess that's pretty gross too.

Love Korean food.

If you post on this board and are Korean, let this serve as notice that I'm after your sister/mom just for her cooking.

its hard to judge asian food by a photo, because you have you dont know what kind of spices were put into it. You can follow the Wiki link to recipes for each individual dish.

There are some meals that I havent been able to try yet, but will eventually like eating an alive octopus. I see this on TV all the time, I dont know if it is a joke or if they really eat it like that. The guy in OldBoy did.

Basically all Korean food has some combination of salt, sugar, garlic, green onions, sesame oil, soy, ginger, red chilis, and/or fermented bean paste.

Once I got Korean food with bdk3clash and Tha' JBB. Tha' JBB ordered sushi. Go white boy go white boy GO!

I think the sound is closer to somewhere between a "g" and a "k".
