Korean Buffet at Milky Way

Lunch Buffet at Milky Way10

If you go to Korea for a short visit and you want to taste authentic Korean cuisine without taking any risk, you can try this “Milky Way” restaurant. The restaurant is called “Eunhasu” in Korean (which means milky way) and I think it is the best place to taste a collection of authentic Korean food. They have over 100 different Korean dishes and of course I didn’t get to try even half of them. Their menus change from time to time as seasons change or if there is a special Korean holiday or something.

The pictures below are what I had. All the food was professionally prepared and cooked. No effort was spared!

(Japchae, Bulgogi, Shrimp and mushrooms in starch sauce )

(Mild energy boosting abalone porridge - Jeonbok Juk)

My top pick is by far LA Galbi! Charcoal grilled Galbi cooked at the right temperature for just the right time was marvelous. I reckon that was the best Galbi I have ever had in my life.

(Tender and mouth melting Galbi, Nutritious glutinous rice in bamboo, and Salmon)

I would love to eat more LA Galbi but I could feel my tummy was getting full. So I moved on to the next dish.

(Kimbap, Cucumber pickles and Sushi)

(Korean traditional snacks)

Lunch Buffet at Milky Way6

(Persimmon punch - Sujeonggwa)

I didn’t like the Korean traditional snacks and persimmon punch much, because it was a bit bitter. On the other hand, I thought what they served us might be more authentic and healthier than what I used to buy from the shops.

Safely Touched Down

Safely Touched Down

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.
