Who would have thought that I experienced fire in the building. This is my first time living in an appartement. Of course I never chose appartement when living in Indonesia because it’s a real high risk when the earthquake happen. But here we are placed in an appartement. What got me relieved the first time that we are in the lowest floor so if something happen we will be quickly evacuated. That’s what I thought. Until it really happened. We slept around midnight and abruptly woken up by the noise outside. I thought it was the drunk people just got back from night club or the restaurant next door was doing some deep cleaning. So loud that I had to wake up. My husband peeked outside and immediately said “fire brigade outside, you wait here!” I was just “am I dreaming or what?” I put on clothes, checked outside and saw a few of fire trucks. I checked the other side of the appartement and saw a few of police cars and ambulances. “Oh no, something serious...
Ssam (쌈) also meaning wrapped. Typically Korean wrapped stuff to eat.
I remember I post about my experience of eating kimchi for the first time got the highest view of all time here. It's kind of weird but it is.
H never wanted to eat K-foods. He said that it doesn't look so appealing (how can he said that? 😣). I kept trying to lure him to try out K-foods. That when he wanted to eat some meat and then we chose a Korean bbq restaurant. He surprised that it came with so many side dishes and more importantly is the way they eat the meat with green leaf, mixed with kimchi and ssamjang.
Boy, look at the odeng and other side dishes! Ssamjang is the one next to the garlic. It's kind of similar to sambal but different. Japchae is the one that looks like bihun goreng.
The first day we ordered galbi and japchae. I really like japchae but it was very big for one person. We thought that the barbeque set will be less big for two, but it didn't. It was just enough for both of us. So, unfortunately, we ate only half of the japchae. But that japchae taste, remind me of my Korean teacher, ê³ ì„ ë¯¸ when she made it for us back then. I miss her.
BBQ set with bulgogi thin sliced meat.
Another day we ordered bulgogi meat because it is thinly sliced and perfect for the combination to make ssam. We fell in love with bulgogi meat for the barbeque. It has a sweet flavor of bulgogi sauce, mixed it with sour kimchi and spicy garlicky ssamjang. It pops out as a fantastic taste in the mouth. Especially when we got a different set of side dishes every time we go there.
Meat, garlic, kimchi, ssamjang, wrapped in one big leaf.
These side dishes are not my favorite but still tasty.
Seaweed soup in one BBQ set. I can say this restaurant is serving you an authentic set of foods you order.
Turns out, he loves it more than I do. So as expected, we went there 3 times in a row for Korean barbeque. It was the last day of staying in Dubai and the last soup was seaweed soup. As many people know the meaning of seaweed soup for Korean is a special soup for birthday. He got it two days before his birthday. And oh! We got a 20% discount on our third time there. No idea why.
Restaurant name: Shogun Restaurant (Korean, Thai, Japanese foods).
Loc: 3rd Floor, Al-Ghurair Center Tower #2 - Al Rigga Rd - Dubai.
