Bulgogi from WooLaeOak: not as large in portion as other places (33,000 per 100 grams) but the flavor is timeless: light sesame and a light pear sweetness. #bbq #bestofseoul

Classic Naengmyeon from WooLaeOak. This is from their first location where the broth is spring water fresh and the noodles have a light buckwheat scent. One of my faves. #naengmyeon #noodles #bestofseoul

Two meals and Antman on Korean Air. I got lucky for the plane is one of the newer models that is a bit roomier and with a very good entertainment system. I like that the entertainment system has a USB port to charge my devices. Meals have been ok. First I had a chicken salad and then a kung pao chicken for the second. Just a few more hours till I am in Milan, Italy. #hostmilano2015 #koreanair #travelgram

Event Planning in Korea: Yevo Food Launch Event

Image
Whew, it's finally over. Yevo Korea Event Launch Its been a long couple of months of planning, negotiating, and creating for a 1 day event that comes and goes. Well I guess that's what it means to be an event planner. Overall, I was quite happy with the event. We had a good turn out, the stage was created in time and there were no misspellings on the banners or any of the material that we produced. Plus it looked like everyone had a good time. Our clients this time were Yevo 43 that wanted a dynamic, fun event that bridged both cultures: America and Korea. They wanted an event focused on explaining the importance of the 43 essential nutrients in their product and how their product was more than food that it was a lifestyle product. We've had other clients that say similar things but with Yevo, I actually do believe in their product . It's really good and good for you.  So what goes into planning a great event in Korea? A whole lot of frustration, patie

Peacock Sea Salt Caramel Popcorn from Emart is legit. Good crunch, not overly sweet and with the nice complexity of salt. Yum #popcorn #korea

Image
Gourmet Popcorn has been one of the big trends this year. It is highly portable and giftable so I feel there are many advantages for it in the market. Now they did have soft serve ice cream with popcorn last summer but I think it was more a gimmick than a hit. Dan via Instagram http://ift.tt/1LiYrG6

Food Trends: Greek Yogurt

Image
 Koreans have been obsessed with Greek yogurt this year as it has been selling out at grocery stores and selling as well as the new Bio yogurt. Now it is at cafes as an ice cream alternative. #yogurt #greek #korea via Instagram http://ift.tt/1MfViHQ

Food trends korea: it's all about cheese. Country Man's deep dish Chicago pizza. Does that make any sense? #pizza #country #chicAgo

Folks, it is not about the ass; it is about the deal and what it represents. Korea doesn't care about phone plans, they care about data. At 13gigs a month for $12 usd, you don't need a phone. #money #korea #tech
