Jeonju Hanok Village (Hanok Maeul)
Jeonju Hanok Village DAY 1 Jeonju, Korea is the capital city of North Jeolla Province. Jeolla province has history dating back to pre-historic times but Jeonju came to existence as a city in 900 AD as part of Later Baekjae era. When I think of Jeonju, I think of Jeonju Bibimbap. That is probably the most famous dish that comes from Jeonju. But recently Jeonju boasts a lot more good eats than just ...

Day 1 was Pork. Day 2 is Seafood! As you can imagine, Jeju island is famous for its fresh seafood. If you missed my earlier post, read Flavors of Jeju Island - Day ...
Flavors of Jeju Island – Day 1
Jeju Island is probably my favorite place in all of Korea. It has everything - ocean, tropical weather, volcanic mountains, amazing food, pretty flowers and even horses that are native to the island (brought in hundreds of years ago). Flavors of Jeju Island include many things but I would have to say their ultra fresh seafood, amazing black pork and sweet mandarin oranges are some that ...

Of all my years visiting various beaches throughout the US, this is the first beach where I saw so many of them. The image above are of all the different color sand dollars we collected during our ...
Breakfast at Andong – Trip to a Korean Historical Home
Nothing fancy or multi-colored, nothing grilled or fried but there is something so comforting and deliciously pleasing about a properly prepared authentic Korean breakfast. In my opinion, this is what traditional Korean food tastes are all about. Every now and then I have complained about how Korean food has changed over the years and have lost a lot of the authentic traditional flavors in ...
Life in Korea – farming anyone?
Here's another reason why I have not been able to blog more often..suddenly I'm now helping my family take care of this farm in Korea. Great River Farm... that's the name of the farm that our family has owned for over 40 years. My dad had a full time job in the government but running this farm was his passion in the hopes of retiring someday and living on this farm. Unfortunately, he passed ...
