International,

Hey, I know you guys out there love your way around a nice delicious dish of great food. So, with that in mind, I thought it would be a good idea to turn you onto what’s happening over atSeoul Eats. Dan has been busy and his efforts have set in motion a Korean Food Tasting Tour. Together, withO’ngo Food Communications,Seoul Eats has created a special lunch consisting of over 20 various dishes. Each and every one will be explained by a Korean Cuisine expert, Jennifer Flinn, in English.

The fun doesn’t stop there. After the lunch there will be a walking tour over to the historic Bukcheon district. There you’ll visit two museums: A Korean Folk Art Museum (Gahoe Museumto sample traditional tea) and the Seoul Museum of Chicken Art. Who can pass up that? I’m already envisioning exhibits of chicken parts combined with metal, cardboard, old transistor radios and Bravia digital TVS in some twisted media installation art piece. Of course, I could be totally off base which is why you should see for yourself.

Once the museum concludes the party moves over to Makgeolli. It’s a kitschy Korean Rice Wine Restaurant where you’ll be tempted into a Korean alcohol tasting. You’ll also learn about 9 different Korean makgeollis, wines, and alcohols. Don’t worry about becoming plastered because plenty of Korean seafood pancake, Haemul Pajeon) and red spicy chicken (Dak Bokkeum) will be on hand.

Dan wants you to know that the tour is all about giving visitors to Korea an insider’s view on the culture and food.

The group will meet up at 11 AM on March 20^thoutside of Anguk subway station on Line 3 (Orange Line) at Exit 6. The tour will start at 11am and finish at 3pm.

Jennifer Flinn will be leading. She has been in Korea for 9 years and has written a plethora of articles on Korean cuisine. She is fluent in both English and Korean and is also a member of RAS (TheRoyal Asiatic Society).

The complete cost of the tour will be 80,000 won ($72.00 Dollars) per person. A booklet explaining the dishes and a map will be provided.
