We had a grand time today in Seoul. My hanji teacher and her daughter, Hannah, met me at my apartment building and we took my 7770 bus into Seoul. I guided them all the way to my Satin Guy and I think they were impressed.
They recognized me but were surprised that I should up with Koreans. So they had a lot of questions about me and now they know everything. Hannah was getting a little bored and I don't blame her especially if satin or fabric isn't your thing. I told her I could stay there forever and just look at all the satin they have. I also took them to my chasu place because my teacher wanted some chasu. She was good about getting business cards.
We then took a taxi to a little shop that only sold hinges but they were the most beautiful hinges I had every seen. I would have taken a picture but they seemed nervous and it was such a tiny place. They were pretty busy too.
We took a taxi to Sindangdong which is famous for ddeokbokki and we ate at a very famous ddeokbokki restaurant.
It was huge and it was packed.
We ordered ddeokbokki with noodles. This is what it looked like when they first brought it out.
There were a couple of tables filled with kids who were really enjoying their lunch.
Starting to boil.
You ate it on a small metal dish which reminded me of a lid to a pot. It was delicious!
Lots of famous people have eaten here. I wanted to take more pictures but we happened to leave with all the kids. A lot of the kids wanted to say hi to me.
This is the outside of the restaurant.
The street is called ddeokbokki street. I definitely have to bring Rocketman here. He would love it too. It was a great day and I got to show my Korean friends one of my favorite places in all the world.
I'm the Constant Crafter looking for adventures in the world of crafts. I spent three years living in South Korea where I explored my love of Korean crafts.

That's the lid of a rice bowl.
