Saw some good friends over the weekend and finally celebrated my birthday 🥳 (it was actually a couple months ago, but it took a while for our schedules to line up 😅)

Korean soju is distilled from fermented rice, or optionally wheat, barley, sweet potatoes, or tapioca. It is believed that it initially appeared when Mongols introduced the distilling technique to the Koreans, sometime in the 13th century.
The first varieties were made with rice, but in 1965 Korean government introduced a ban on using rice, and many producers looked for alternative sources. Soju is a clear spirit that is usually low in alcohol and has a mild, neutral flavor, which makes it work well with a wide array of dishes.
It is usually enjoyed well-chilled, served in small traditional glasses, but Koreans also prefer to drop a shot of soju in beer. Apart from the classic type, it also comes in many fruit-flavored versions. Although it might come as a surprise, soju regularly tops the list of the best-selling drinks in the world, due to the large per capita consumption in South Korea.

[종로찌게마을, Jongno Jjigaemaeul]
If you want to experience real old Seoul people's life, then you should visit this restaurant ✨️
You know, a restaurant in which many old people are in is the most delicious one in that area. This place is perfectly fit in this statement ❗️
Now in viral, also many young people are waiting in a queue. You know what it means 😌
Okay, the foods you must order are
1. 알고니볶음/Stir fries of Fish Roe and Intestine
The most popular menu in this restaurant. Actually I visited here for this. This is the red one on pictures I posted. Stired and fried with special sauce, you can taste real Korean style food with steamed rice. You may recognize you already ate 2 bowls of rice with this 😋
2. 대구탕/Codfish Soup
Second food I strongly recommend to you guys. One funny old idiom : Korean food must be served with a soup ❗️While you eating your rice, you may recon that you need a soup for drinking. Then this crystal clear codfish soup will satisfy your thinking.
❗️You must order 'extra' codfish soup, not for a main dish one❗️
🔥 And all of these foods are perfect with soju and beer
I hope you enjoy this restaurant while you traveling in Seoul ♥️
All of questions, text me 📩
