Korea - Day 6
Started off today by getting a new pair of eyeglasses from my cousin's friend's place in Namdaemun. He gave me a good deal as the frame I got was supposed to cost $85 but he gave it to me for $65. Shoots!
After that, had lunch at this hole in the wall place in a town whose name I forget. But it's a really well known place called Myong Hwa Won and they're only open from 11am - 4pm every day except Sunday.
Always a line here...
This is the entire menu - Jjajangmyeon ($3.50), jjampong ($4), mandoo ($4), and tangsooyook ($14). Everything is so cheap!
The fried mandoo
The tangsooyook (sweet sour pork)
The jjajangmyeon
After lunch, took a walk around Namdaemun Market. I don't really like shopping but was looking for (cheap) gifts for friends.
Lots of places selling ginseng and other health products.
Busy streets....
Women's coats...
The food aisle...
Kimchee and panchan anyone?
Pig's feet...I gotta eat this once before I leave!
Kitchenware...
Men's suits...
So I ended up just buying a few hats for like $15 total. After about an hour of walking around, I was pooped so decided to head back.
Stopped by a bakery on the way back. Lotsa good choices!
Later on in the night, met a 형 (hyeong = older brother) for some drinks.
Soju and chicken gizzards!
This is actually a large "tent bar" in No Hyeon Dong where you can do booking
