How many times do you wake up tired or hung over? You are craving the best meal of your life, but always end up back at 김밥나라 (Kimbap Nara) eating the usual dumplings or ramen noodles.

When I first came to Gwangju, all I knew was it was famous for it’s cuisine. The only problem was, where do I eat? Where are the Mexican restaurants? Where can I get a decent sandwich; preferably one without honey mustard on it.

After living here merely a year or so, I have gotten the chance to go out and explore the town. Not just downtown, but areas in Sangmu, Chunnam University back gate, Chosun University and World Cup Stadium. I have been blessed enough to actually get paid at my work, and spend my clams eating out. Maybe a little too much, but all for your best interest!

This site is for you! Know of a good place to eat? Take a couple of photos, how to get there, and a review, and email me jamesdenfield@gmail.com.

Chicken Sticks

So after dinner with a co-worker tonight, we hit a local Ministop for a quick snack.  I figured “what the hell,” let’s review a snack.

The first box that caught my eye was this snack called 닭다리, which translates to chicken leg.  I’ll be honest the thought of eating hot-and-spicy BBQ drumsticks (in crisp form) sounded awesome.  I picked up the box for 900W.

Let me be blunt.  These things suck.  I would have much rather gotten a Tank Boy ice cream for that price.  These little suckers are cute; seriously, they look like mini drum sticks! Too bad they taste like cardboard.  If you see these on the shelf at your local mart, don’t bother.
