Baekcheongu Kalguksu Yongin Dongbaek Branch is a Korean restaurant in Dongbaek, Yongin, Gyeonggi, where seafood kalguksu is cooked at the table. Starting with barley rice before sharing half-and-half dumplings and seafood kalguksu made for a more filling meal than expected. Verdict: a comfortable choice for a hot, brothy meal.
Boseung Hoegwan Bangi Branch is a Korean restaurant in Songpa, Seoul, serving gukbap and pork side dishes. We had pork jowl suyuk gukbap, sliced sundae, pollock salad, and fire-grilled pork for 32,000 won. Verdict: a solid pick for a warming, hearty meal with smoky grilled pork.
Fresh Farmer Olympic Park Foreon Direct Store is an egg specialty shop in Gangdong, Seoul. I compared shell-code 1 free-range eggs and shell-code 2 hen-friendly eggs, then bought animal-welfare fertilized eggs and organic free-range fertilized eggs. A worthwhile stop for households that eat eggs often and want to compare production conditions.
