I'm Cultured

A few weeks ago we went out with some friends for Korean food. As many of you know I am somewhat of a picky eater and thus was a little worried about the upcoming feast. John on the other hand grew up eating Korean food. I don't know many non-Koreans who appreciate kimchi but John does. We drove up to Santa Monica or LA...sometimes I forget where one city ends and the next one begins! Where ever it was we drove there and pulled up to this fine establishment. Asian YA!

Here's the group:

This little guy was in our tofu soup! Eyeballs and all! Speaking of the tofu soup what wasn't in there. It had tofu (of course) and the some sort of shell fish, meat, shrimp etc. you name it! It wasn't half bad!

Here is me getting ready to enjoy my friend!

Yeah right! It was all staged. I'm willing to try things but when their eyes are still attached-no thank you. Besides I've tried shrimp before and wasn't a fan.

Here is the tofu soup. We also ordered different meats. John got a large order of the ribs, our friends tried to tell him how big the servings were but he went ahead and got it anyways, and yes he ate the whole thing. Told ya he loves Korean food. They also brought out a ton of ramekins with different um...stuff in them. I tried almost all of them. I'm a big fan of the spicy cucumbers and I can't remember what the rest of them are called but they were pretty good.

Overall I enjoyed the food. It's not something I will crave but I would eat it again. It was just nice going out on a date with friends.
