Korean Restaurant: Healthy Food (and Delicious!)

Here are two pics, the first showing the "appetizer" course and the second the full meal spread, which includes meat, fish, two soups, and a variety of side dishes (veggie):

Sunday Lunch

Kind of out in the country, this unassuming place

serves up a wonderful Korean lunch, filling the table with a variety of healthy and delicious side dishes:

Someone asked me last week what my favorite Korean food is, and I honestly answered that I can't choose just one.  However, this is my favorite kind of Korean meal!

Home-Cooked Korean Food

Above is japchae (잡채), a mix of noodles and veggies.

Here we have a kimchi 'pancake' (for want of a better word, but it's spicy, not sweet) (김치전).

In the big pot there is a chicken stew (닭도리당, 닭복금탕).

All of the foods were delicious!

For Lunch: Pork Cutlet

Yesterday for lunch several of us from the English academy ate at a small, newish pork cutlet eatery (it's really too small to be called a restaurant).  That's about all that they serve: pork cutlets.

Originally it's a Japanese food, a breaded, fried piece of pork, but it is common in Korea, where it is called donkasu (돈가수) and served with kimchi and some radish slices (for some reason commonly colored yellow):

It was quite good, as was their kimchi, and I plan to eat there again sometime (thought not too often as it's clearly not a health food).  The price is good too--$6.
