|Ku|rean dinner; Please.

The title itself is a play on words. Allow me to explain. To some friends, I am known as |Ku| (Say who, but put a K infront.) It is somewhat of an alias. I am a frequent user of mIRC so when I leave the PC, I always try to come up with something catchy to change my name to. |Ku|rean was a success.

Lately Mika and I have been visitng many asian restaurants around the city. We’ve even drove through some cities just to taste some of the best styles South Florida has to offer. Some local shops, some bigger shops that seem to be there but many do not know about. In a few articles, I will explain to you what makes each and every other place unique but I will start off with one of my many favorites.

KOREAN. I never knew Korea had such a taste. I enjoy every minute of it when comes to indulging in Korea’s marinated beef with sliced vegetables better known as Bulgogi (This can be spelled in many ways. I visited a Korean restaurant later that week and noticed that they spelled it as Boolgogi.) My favorite dishes are usually Bulgogi, Pancake with Oyster, and Jabchea (JHAB-CHAY) which is clear noodles (I call them kira-kira noodles due to their shine that is given off, some may call them almost invisible.) One should try their hardest not to order Japanese cuisine when in a Korean restaurant. Not to say that the flavoring will be different but when doing so, you will be missing out on the great tastes Korea has to offer.

You have a choice to have it cooked in the kitchen or you can have your food cooked right infront of you. I myself, am a fan of the bbq.

As the beef cooks, you can sample one of the many side dishes. Usually the ones with red sauce are spicy dishes so taste with warning.

A few more dishes added. The one to the far with is cabbage with bean paste dipping sauce. The bean paste is a little bit mild and I do enjoy it with my marinated beef and white rice.

Oyster Pancakeu~ It’s quite delicious but at times a little bit on the greasy side. I usually recommend eating it with many people because it can fill you up quickly.

Beef is complete; food is ready! Let’s get started!

First anime-con ever.

This will be the first anime convention I attend! I am hoping it won’t be full of otaku but my hopes aren’t that high. It will give me a reason to film or create something that everyone will enjoy.

They also have the Doki-Doki Cafe making it’s appearance at the convention. NOTE: Doki-doki is one of those sounds in Japan that represents an action. From what I was taught, it’s kind of like your heart when you get kissed for the first time by a girl/boy that you have been dating for 7 months. In this case, your heart is doki-doki, pumping faster than regular and not normal. By saying this, I have mixed more people up but good thing we have google!

“Doki doki” is a Japanese onomatopoeia for a rapidly beating heart, and it is commonly found in Japanese video game titles, carrying connotations of excitement and anxiety.

It’s supposed to be a play off of the Akihabara Maid cafes found in Japan. Many loser otaku go to these shops to get their daily dose of cleavage or cute sounding Japanese girls. I would say women but by the way they act, I would have to call them girls. ANIME WOMEN are girls. Seriously. Hopefully the girls aren’t as ugly as I hope they will be. Or else, the otaku won’t be able to control themselves.

Breaking faces

This post has nothing to do with breaking faces but mainly with a tooth breaking. I was eating something very hard and tough, as I bite into it, I heard a gentle pop. I thought to myself, “Hey, I tore this bone up!” And then, I glide my tongue over the 3 to last tooth on the right side of my mouth and to my surprise, I broke off a piece of my tooth. I wondered to myself how this could happen because I don’t have any serious cavities. All I have it too light cavities (thank you my silly child hood years). This was the sign to see my local dentist. I have an appointment for Tuesday but I have never felt such a pain in my mouth. It started off with my tooth itself and then soon made it’s way to my entire jaw. As the pain increased, I took more pain killers. I have never taken so many in my entire life. The pain got so bad that I caught myself giving out short shouts to try and handle the pain. I quickly asked father what should be done and he suggested purchasing some oralgel products and I quickly agreed. I sped to CVS and when I mean speed, I mean I have never pushed my new car so far. If it was a manual car, I would of drifted all the way to the store and all the way back home. It’s funny how pain makes you do things much quicker. I am use to pain but not in my mouth so this was the first time I have ever encountered such an issue. Even on a motorcycle, I would of tore up the Florida streets with my Japanese power house as if I was riding on an amazing German performance race track. I quickly reached the CVS and rushed back home to get my fix. After applying it to the tooth, it became very numb. It actually worked! I didn’t know it would take away most of the pain. Maybe some but not 90% of it. I still have that feeling in my mouth of discomfort, especially when I eat. I have an appointment soon to have it fixed so that will be one thing off of my check-list.
