chiggae has sold out to the dark side. For those who don't know Omoro
is a famous place for using aged, ripened kimchi in their stew.
Today that familiar champagne-like taste was not present. Also, in the
past, the robust taste of their kimchi was calmed by age-so their kimchi
chiggae had a mature note to it. It wasn't sour and pungent, but fragrant.
Before, their stew was like a 2005
bourdeux, but now it tastes more like a 2009.

At least the rice was nice and the place was air conditioned. ㅠㅠ

Aw, that's sad! Was the change something they openly acknowledged, or was it something they were hoping customers wouldn't notice?

I don't know, but they still advertise the healthiness of their kimchi. I think it's something they hoped people wouldn't notice.
ReplyDeleteit's hard to take a food-blogger who apparently gets his wine from a place called "bourdeux" seriously.
