Best Healthy HanJeongSik (Korean Set Meal) In Gangwon Province, Korea!

healthy organic vegetarian

On my second day of Gangwon-do, Korea trip, I had the opportunity to try out one of the most authentic Korean Set Meal called Hanjeongsik. This kind of spread is usually consumed by royalties in the old days where they have cold to hot dishes served. Back in the days in Korea, there's actually a specific order when eating Hanjeongsik but these days, they'll usually just serve all at once. I prefer it this way too.

The other great part about having this meal is also the location of this place. The restaurant name SeoJiChoGaTeul, is little house located in Gangneung. Surrounding the house is a beautiful open area filled with trees, river, and a magnificient view of hills and mountains.


Fantastic place to take Instagram worthy pictures!

According to my tour guide, I was told that usually they do not serve meat or seafood along with this Hanjeongsik as it was meant to be cleansing set meal with all vegetables and tofu but because we're Malaysians, lol, we had special dishes such as fish and squid. Also, the chef in this restaurant only uses all organic vegetables, thus, great and healthy for people who wants to give meat a rest for a day.

Personally, I wouldn't say that I love every single dish on the table. Some dishes I really just can't handle it as I'm not used to it. Most of them, I don't even know what are they made of. I can safely say that I personally love their Japchae, the noodles were well cooked and seasoned.

Though I'm not the biggest fan of this meal but I do think it's a great experience on authentic Korean meal. Also, if you are on diet or vegetarian, this would be the perfect place for a meal when visiting Gangwon Province, Korea.

How To Enjoy Ramyeon/Instant Noodles At Han River When In Seoul! \\ What To Do In Seoul

Image
I believe it was early last year when a video of people cooking instant noodles and enjoying them by the Han River in Korea went viral. It was a super cool concept and I told myself if I had the chance to go around Seoul myself, experiencing ramyeon at Han River will definitely be on top of my list. Many months later, Dex and I had a trip to Seoul and did this together. While planning this trip, I was so focused on trying to find which Han River that has this special cooking machine. I thought it was only one particular place sell this but it's actually not. I believe by now, pretty much any park that's by the Han River allows you to have this experience as long as they have a convenient store. We've chosen to visit Yeouido Park by the Han River since it was one of the recommended place that my sis-in-law mentioned and she's not wrong, the park was beautiful. I personally do recommend this park too.

Printing My 2014 Memories With Canon! [HUGE GIVEAWAY]

Image
2014 has been a year of change. So many things had happened, big, small, good and bad, all I can say is that I am thankful. Or to be exact, I choose to be thankful because some things are out of our control.  I thank God for the great things that happened in my life, things such as getting a job that allows me to travel and experience different cultures, having the opportunity to do what I love which is writing and blogging, and to meet new people as well as reunited with friends that I've not seen for a really long time. I also thank God for the unpleasant moments and experiences because they are priceless, a lesson learnt for me to prepare for my future self. Not only making me stronger and more mature, but it also taught me about humility and the gift of silence.
