I was drawn into this post by the thought of korean food, but I was totally distracted by the pictures of your new place! It looks amazing, with those huge windows. Looks way different from Rogers Park! Do you love it? I've been too busy for meet ups lately, but I might have to find the time to go to one, just to check out your new pad :) Congrats!
ReplyDeleteSome of that looks absolutely fantastic! I have a friend teaching English in South Korea right now...but he mostly eats KFC and ramen. ;) Are these pictures taken in your new apartment? The view is amazing!
ReplyDeleteAfter seeing this, I really need to try more Korean cuisine! Everything looks marvelous and I've saved some of these recipes!
ReplyDeleteOk, so the food looks amazing (as usual), but your new place is gorgeous! What a view!
