Location: Korean Mart and Bing Soo, Bandung, Indonesia.
It’s been a long time since im craving so much for Korean culinary, especially Korean street food like Tteok pok ki :D. Tteok pok ki is a braised dish of sliced rice cake, meat, eggs, and seasoning :9. i made it before, my korean friend gave me the recipe, but…because Rice Cake (tteok) is hard to find in Indonesia, i have to made it by myself..and its not easy :( so i’m failed. nobody wants to eat it… :’(
so, after a very long time, me and my close friend Fransiska (finally) went to Korean Mart and Bing Soo in our town. it was a hard-to-find little Market and cafe near Paris Van Java. first, we went to Korean Mart, its full of korean product, start from ice cream, Ramen, beverages, snacks, candies, rice, etc. i was so excited and wanted to buy everything! and you know what? they even sell Instant Rice Cake and Tteok pokki paste spice!!so we can make it easily in our home!gyaaa~but i can’t find Soju :(
after it, we went to Bing Soo, its located side by side with the Korean Mart. a little cute cafe with a lot of Korean books and Man Hwa (comics). they only have 5-6 tables, so we decided to sit in the corner. we can find Kimchi, Myeok-guk, Bibimbap, Kimbap, Tteok kichi, Ramen, Curry Rice, and another popular korean foods and beverages. so, we ordered Tteok Pokki, just tteok pokki :D. its very delicious, served with fish cakes and cabbage, NYAM NYAM!!
we bought Ice creams in Korean Mart before we went back home, it was har for me to decide for i really love ice cream :P so we bought Pongta Power Cap Ice Cream, i took the Soda one while Fransiska prefer chocolate :) actually we wanted to have the Subak (watermelon) one, but its sold out :(
anyway, i had a lot of fun and i hope i could try all dishes in Bing Soo and buy as much Korean ice cream as i can :D
