This is a homage post to the mighty Robyn Lee Aka Robyn Lee. Robyn came to Korea back in May to cover the Rice Cake festival. She took so many amazing pictures while she was here that I was just utterly blown away. I am a regular visitor of Robyn’s Blog, The Girl Who Ate Everything and of her posts on Serious Eats

Her pictures make me want to throw my camera away and chop off my trigger finger. I wonder how she makes them all so shiny and luscious. If you want to see more of her picks, I recommend her FLICKR page as well.

All Hail the mighty Roboppy!

****From the Campaign to have Robyn Lee Friend me on her homepage^^****
