Seoul Tonkatsu

Tasty, though probably not worth staying behind 2 hours because all the immediately departing KTX trains are full. Pro tip: buy train tickets ahead of time.

Grilled Salmon with Parmesan Broth

Samgyetang

Not a huge fan of the taste, but apparently it’s really good for you. Easy lunch spot after spending the morning at Gyeongbokgung Palace.

So-tteok

From the late night street food stalls in Seoul.

Delicious Natto

Some people see a stinky, mucus-like spoiled beans on rice, I see a tasty, healthy side that adds depth of flavor to the traditional Japanese breakfast. From the breakfast spread at the Hilton.

Mandu and Kalguksu @ Myeongdong Kyoja

Cheap, tasty! Perfect to round out a night of shopping in downtown Seoul.

Dosirak @ Gimgane Gimbap

Cheap and filling. It is near a university after all.
