We both gained so much weight in the past few days with all
the delicious food in Seoul, so we decided to eat something light as our final
meal. We walked to a local
porridge restaurant for a quick brunch.
This place has been run by husband and wife owners for over
20 years. They make traditional
Korean porridge dishes.
I ordered their signature abalone porridge. Very nice flavor, and it was almost healing. I enjoyed it very much.
In the final hour, we did a last-minute final shopping at
the gourmet floor of Lotte Department Store. So much fun.
In this trip, I had a new discovery and I drank it every day during my stay in Seoul…it’s Oksusu
Suyeomcha. Oksusu (corn) tea is
common is Korea, but instead of corn kernels, corn silk (hair) is infused in
this tea. It’s supposed to have
even better health benefits than regular corn tea, and you can find it in
plastic bottle at any convenient stores.
The flavor has real deep corn flavor, and I got totally hooked by
it! During this trip, I bought
Oksusu Suyeomcha every day. I wish
I could buy it in Tokyo or LA, too.
