So after Everland, we took the bus back to Gangnam. On the main street (where krispy kreme is) Turn into the lanes and you see some few streets of brightly litsignageandtteobokki vendors. We were looking for dinner obviously from the lack of real food in amusement park (as usually aint it?) We ended up in this Galbi restaurant. It looks like a big huge sizzling hot plate smack right in the middle of the table. So curious enough because its one of the first days we are in Korea, we went in, sat, and let the spicy-adventure begin!
Because I know my memory wont serve me well enough to remember the pricing for each dish, or the name of the restaurant (because its written in Hangul anyway) here are more pictures!
Its similar to hot plate (like Pepper Lunch) but without the sizzle. Still the same amount of smoke. 
Pa-jeon. Korean Pancake. I havent found a really good one here in KL (I honestly dont eat out that much) Infact, those in Sydney were actually pretty similar to what they have in Korea. Juicy seafood, Chinese chives, and pancake just thick enough to cover the seafood. Ah, why didnt we eat more of these
Udon with spicy paste. The udon in Korea are good too!! Its Q and not floury / mushy. But the spicy paste was oh so spicy! Its like a concentrated chili paste and its meant to be added into the hot plate to be cooked with the rest of the ingredients.
Here comes the horror! Chicken marinated with some spicy red pepper sauce (Im guessing its a spicier version of gojujang) The pan is about 20 inches diameter and you really need it to be that big. They will then add leek and onions, and other ingredients such as mushroom or seafood if you have ordered that. Overwhelming.
In goes the rest of the ingredients! Leeks are huge
Alas, it makes you wonder how much chili has gone into the process of making this dish. Not to worry! It wasnt all spicy and nothing else. Its a kick at your tongue (and lips) but you can still taste the freshness of the ingredients and the peppery gojuchang (I just assume it is somewhat similar to it) This wont be your cup of tea if you cant take spicy food. But yum I love LOVE LOVE spicy food
If youre thinking of dieting, no it wont happen because you need alot of rice to eat with this Chicken and Seafood Galbi. trust me.
Streets of Gangnam.
Next it will be Zipwire in Gapyeong Wharf to Nami Island. One of the best highlights of the trip
