We arrived in the sunshine state early morning yesterday. Weather is beautiful here. Slightly humid but comfortably warm. The mixed smell of summer and autumn and less pollution make me feel like I am on a holiday. We are in a temporary house at the moment, so it will take some time until I start cooking. In the meantime, I would like to present my Seoul restaurant reviews.
We had stayed in Seoul for the past few days. The purpose was sightseeing since Michael and I have never been to some of those popular tourist destinations like Insadong or Kyongbokgung. Yet the funny thing is that we didn’t actually visit any of those places, except Insadong (our hotel was located in a very heart of Insadong), and all we did was sleep and eat.
I researched popular Korean restaurants in Seoul and I picked some of them to visit. They all got mentioned on the TV or news papers several times and I wanted to visit them to show you around. Somehow, after visiting those restaurants for each meal, we got so tired and couldn’t do much of the tourist things.
I will start posting about them soon, hopefully from tomorrow. I hope you are still entertained by my archives.
About 3 weeks ago, I went to Outback Steak House with my husband and some foreign friends. When I ordered, I asked for an individual bill for us. We got the bill after the meals and it was amazing how we all were full, yet our (me and my husband) bill was very different to other couples. That is because I was a member and the other foreigners weren’t. (By the way, it doesn’t cost any money to become a member.)
There are 2 main benefits if you are a member of Outback steak House in Korea.
- You can get a Birthday coupon and with that you can get a free appetizer (with one meal minimum purchase). You can choose one amongst Bloomin’ Onion, Coogee Bay Calamari, and Rangeland rib lets
(You can get this birthday coupon once a year, but you can use it any time you want. They also send you some free coupons occasionally.)
- If you are married, on your wedding anniversary you can get 2 glasses of free drinks (Pick from Soda, Beer, or Wine)
When I got home I visited the Outback Steak House website to find some information about membership for foreigners. Surprisingly they had an English web page, but it didn’t have any information about membership or any other Event promotions.
I finally found out how to become a member, as a foreigner, at the FAQ on the Korean web page, though I wondered how many foreigners can read that FAQ to become a member. So I am going to tell you how to become a member at Outback Steak House in Korea, so if you want, just do what I say now. (They ask for a lot of information, but that is common for all website registrations in Korea.)
