Korean Restaurant in Chennai 

Despite the fact that India has a million different spices, and many varieties of grains, and pulses, and vegetables, and oils…..and everything! I still miss Korean food. When I want comfort food I think of dwenjang jiggae, and when I have a graving I think of kimchi, or chomchi. I would like to speculate that Korean food is the best in the world. Korean food felt so good in my body, whereas south Indian food sometimes makes me sick, and sometimes fills me up, and gives me little energy. Local Indians don’t eat out all the time like Korean’s, so (to be fair) the food I’m getting here is probably not as close to the homemade stuff as Korean restaurant food. Regardless of the facts I often miss Korean food. On my birthday (also her birthday) Priyanka told me that there was a Korean restaurant near our house. What a nice birthday present. There is apparently a pretty big Korean population here because there is a Hyundai factory here. David and I went the day after my birthday. The food was delicious, and authentic (like at a really good restaurant in Korea.) Unfortunately the prices were also Korean (actually a little on the pricey side for Korea, but still worth it. Soondooboo jiggae was 250 rupees (about 5 Canadian dollars or 6000 Korean won), chomchi dopbap was 300 rupees (about 6 Canadian dollars or 7000 Korean won). Most of our meals here cost between 20 and 50 rupees each, so Korean food is quite costly (definitely a specialty restaurant). These prices are for Emily who ate Korean food in Malaysia, and craved it in India. Anyways, we’ll go back. We didn’t check the cost of soju, but it’s probably a small fortune. Alcohol is generally more expensive here than it is even in Canada. We were too excited to eat so we took the picture of the meal after we ate it. The server brought unlimited panjan (side dishes) though (just like in Korea). What is left is the second round of panjan.
