Dubu Jjim

4.0

at Iri Garden

-Seokwha, Seowon, Hoengseong, Gangwon, Republic of Korea-

with the Family

Now that I don’t go to Jinmi Pyongyang Naengmyeon these days (see most recently 14.156 Mandu) – mostly because the lines are too long, also because they charge extra to valet park “big” SUVs, like mine – and I’ve grown a bit weary of mul naeng myeon in general (see for comparison 15.172 The Korean-Chinese Quaternity), Iri Garden might very well be my favorite restaurant in the world, even though dubu jjim isn’t my favorite dish in the world.

While the grand array of 15+1 banchan at Gogi Nara is impressive (see for example 14.199 Birthday Banchan), the 9 varieties offered here are just as satisfying.

With the boys now on winter break, we arrived at the cabin this afternoon and plan to leave tomorrow, so as to travel against standard traffic flows.
