Scallops with Pasta
3.0
at Wasabi
-Songdo, Yeonsu, Incheon, Republic of Korea-
solo
Wasabi is a Japanese restaurant. More of an izakaya (pub), specializing in various soups and skewers. Might be part of a chain (many restaurants by the same name, but some with different spellings, different menus, different decors, etc).

Back in town for another book fair at Chadwick (see most recently 14.336 Saengseon Jeon!), which starts tomorrow. Following the set-up today, I booked a hotel room (see generally 14.137 Shrimp Burger), saving myself a few hours of driving. Wasabi for dinner.

The scallop dish was pretty good. The scallops were fresh, though otherwise unremarkable. The broth, seasoned with some kind of white wine, plus garlic + red chilies + tomatoes, was tasty, especially after it had reduced down. The spaghetti was a nice final touch to round out the meal. One and done.
