I don’t know why I didn’t post these before. These meet-ups have been really going well and I think it’s a great way to meet other foodies. Here are pictures of the last meet-up we did at Samarkand: Uzbekistani Restaurant near Dongdaemun Stadium.

Good Beer. I recommend the 3 and the 6. The 9 tastes like it has vodka in it (and it is super strong).

Got lamb?

Miso: Korean Smile

Chez Biz (fried lamb over fries)

I LOVE THEIR CARROT SALAD!

Samsa! Flakey pastry stuffed with lamb and onion.

Golstovy: Cabbage and Pepper Stuffed with meat!

Pelemeni! Lamb Mandu.

I wonder what they are looking at? I’m sure it’s probably delicious.

Good times and good company.

Asian Pose: Big Heart
