양꼬치 (Yangkkochi) – Lamb Skewers and Chinese Beer at Nowon Station
I’m not sure, but I think 양꼬치 (Yangkkochi) is a play on words for 양고기 (Yang gogi) which means lamb in Korean. Either way, Jill and I were tired after a long week of taking care of a sick little man and decided to get out of the house for a bit to relax with some lazy […]
Charlie’s Hot Dog Grill and Bar – Great For the Tastebuds. Bad for the Old Heart.

Good Burger Pop-Up at Bulldogs in Itaewon – Great Burgers, Fries and Hopefully a Location

However, if you attended Good Burger’s pop-up on Friday, your culinary tastes are much better. Good Burger is a group of inspiring chefs who have a passion for […]
