The basket is made out of thin strings of potato that is woven in the shape of a basket. It is topped with fried mugwort that looks like stained glass and shatters like crystal. Around the basket are giant shrimp that look like they were fried alive in the ocean. This "Shrimp Basket" comes with lotus chips that I could eat all day, everyday, for the rest of my life.

Crabs Walking: Tiny Fried Crabs served with a Mango Sun and Green Sauce. These days I have been able to go to some of the best restaurants in Seoul. One of these places is Im Ji-ho's restaurant, "Sandang" The restaurant means Mountain Village and the food was creative, lively, and delicious. His motto is: Food is a merger of Art, Science, and Health. It is in Yangpyeong, so you'll have to drive to get there. Trust me it is worth it. 031 772 3959 I'm going to tease one picture at a time, so stay tuned for me. Dan
