[KOREA] 연남동 멘야히가시 MENYAHIGASI, YEONNAMDONG-HONGDAE

I've been exploring some japanese ramen in Seoul, in Sinchon or Hongdae but just yeah nope just didnt fulfill my standard HAHA Indonesia has better ramen with Hakata Ikkousha or Ikkudo but here mehhh. I love my ramen with undercooked thin noodle, thick based soup, and charcoally thick pork. Last time i saw a ramen house in Yeonnam-dong near Hongdae area and looked so gorgeous and how is it tasted?

닌니쿠라멘
NINNIKU RAMEN
₩7500
noodle is great super chewy - between undercooked and aldente. Soup based still cant impressed me but quite fatty. Fried garlic takes the ramen to the next level, crunchy and some soggy garlic super yummy blended with the soup. And here THE MAIN POINT IS CHASYU PORK AND EGG ( omg my saliva dropping while writting this) chasyu super thick and well marinated not only oh just pork taste but they surely marinated it with something and grill it on charcoal for few minutes before served, it looked tough but super juicy and tender and here another star is THE EGG SHIEETTT you know they just give it half but :""""" it not just regular egg they also marinated it with something because you can really tasted savory sweet taste when you bite the white egg part
TASTE 9/10

[KOREA] 크리스탈제이드 CRYSTAL JADE, MYEONGDONG

I never eat crystal jade in Korea because hey who gonna eat chinese food in Korea HAHA actually because it just too expensive HAHA so last time, my friend invited me to join her dinner and yah let's compare it whether its better or not from Indonesia or Hongkong that ive eaten before.

크리스탈제이드
CRYSTAL JADE

HOW TO GO
Euljiro 1(ip-gu)ga MRT Station exit 5 (line2)
Right beside LV store outside Lotte Dept. Store Myeongdong

APPETIZER
새우쌀피
SHRIMP RICE LAYER WRAP
₩7000
OMGGGGG checongfan just never disappointing :") super gewd and  i thought it even better than before that i've eaten. The steamed chechongfan is thicker, shrimp is super crunchy and the sauce super savory yet sweet. Super boost your appetite ♡
TASTE 10/10

MAIN
해산물 초면
FRIED NOODLE WITH SEAFOOD 
a.k.a ifumie
Super miss this dish. Super yummy and heart warming. But too bad the sauce is too little because i love my fried noodle become soggy.
TASTE 9/10

SUPER STAR
북경오리
PEKING DUCK
Half ₩50.000//whole ₩90.000
They cut the duck on the table and served it directly but compared to Indonesia and Hongkong, korean staff who slicing the duck is not as professional because you just can see it from the cuts. For the rest of meat leftover, you can choose to make it as soup, fried, or stir fried with chillis but we chose as soup and it felt super gewd and refreshing at the same time
TASTE 10/10

After all, i thought korean crystal jade is as same as good as others but it just much more expensive, i will never spend my money on whole duck just for one time dinner 
LOL

[KOREA] 배스킨로빈스브라운 BASKIN ROBBINS BROWN, CHEONGDAM-DONG

*CHEONGDAM CAFE ALERT*
nobody doesnt know baskin robbins that usually famous with its "31" flavours. It is totally be my top favorite since i moved to Korea compared to Haagendazs because i can find the store everywhere and also less sweet than Baskin robbin's indonesia. And lately, they opened new store with a new concept instead of 31 it became 100 flavours store ( but actually not really 100 flavours HAAH) it more into high end fancy looked icecream store with more variety of not only icecream, but also cakes and coffee. Located in Cheongdam area right across YG entertaiment makes it more fancier.

[KOREA] FIRST TIMER CLUBBING IN HONGDAE, KOREA

Getting older ( im 23 actually) makes me lazy to stay up overnight beside watching my korean dramas HAHAHA so the last time i remembered i did clubbing when i still in Indonesia 2.5 years ago and i am a korea clubber virgin HAHAAHAHA since the first time i came here and live here i never do clubbing until last week when my friend invited me to the club. 

Clubs in Seoul, Korea have many categories depends on the area. For schoolars and students, HONGDAE & SINCHON and GANGNAM & CHEONGDAM is more to "adult" older club i meant more into glamourous 30s settled adults. Because my friend booked table at Hongdae so yeah this my story for clubbing at Hongdae specificly at

클럽베라 CLUB VERA
서울 마포구 홍익로 25
서교동 356-1 서교호텔별관 B2F
Hongik University MRT Station exit 9 ( line2)

Price
₩350000
Private sofa for 6 persons free entrances, 2 liquors, soda, and snacks


THINGS TO NOTICED
#1 dont forget your ID CARD or you can't pass security check
#2 Cloth doesnt really matter. So you can use t-shirt, jeans and sandal like casual things ( this the thing that super different with Indonesia club, where we have to use formal and super neat and bye bye to sandal)
#3 dont make any problems with everyone because remember guys we are foreigners and KOREAN is super racist and dont ever think you can win agains local law. (Because lately so many problems with foreigner in the club cause by Korean but in the end, Korean won)


Ya it just okey overall just okey. But i just tired from 12am~5am HAHA just too old already. And i just didnt really enjoy things because firstly, all students like all, looking at them anak-anak sekia just ya dont wasting your time go home and study la HAHA second, they like to touch your body ( not me i just saw my friends and the other group of girls) i didnt know why but guy at the club super horny? Like to touch and hug stranger from behind? Why your di*k so itchy hah? Haha poor kids, many people cant really enjoy dancing because of that disturbance.

So ya you can try clubbing at korea but becareful. I know nothing safe at this kinda place and maybe some korean read my blog and like if you dont want get touch dont go the club laa. Whatever my blog my story haha no offense but next time, i prefer to sleep or just bbq party at night compared to clubbing 

CIAO!!!
