The Turkish Kebab with German spin – a bit salty but another fast & quick lunch in SLU.

Is this German food or Turkish food?

Paldo Korean Noodle Broad Noodle: 고려면 칼국수

Interesting noodle “Koryo Myeon”? Never heard this before although coming from well-known Ramen company in Korea, so gave it a try..

After some research this turned out to be ‘export only model’ not a old kingdom’s taste (Koryo name is one of the old kingdom in Korea – actually the word of ‘Korea’ originated from that kingdom’s name)

Anyhow, tasted like Kalgooksoo/thick style noodle ramen and tasted good 🙂

우리 마나님께서 안매워 보이고 싸다고 사오신 고려면… 난생처음 들어보는 이름은데 홈페이지에 찾아보니 팔도의 수출전용모델로, 고려면 – Korean Noodle Broad Flavor라고 나온다. 무슨 고려왕조 시대 맛을 재현한 면식인가라는 기대를 가지고 봤다가 그런 기대를 하고 있는 나를 보고 웃어주셨다.

(넓은맛은 도데체 어떤 맛이며, “고려”를 Korea/Korean로 번역하는 안암동식 억지 번역은 당최 뭔 조화인지… ㅋㅋㅋ ) 끌여보니 대략 칼국수라면이구만….

스프가 고추장 Paste에 기반한 것으로 보이며, 아무래도 국수맛에 먹는 라면인듯…먹을만해주심..:)

Finally!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! My holiday gift – from me to me – arrived!

Great detailed kit & contain 3 versions of all DeLorean – wondering whether to buy 2 more sets to have full 3 versions available at one time???

드디어 스스로에게 하는 연말선물 도착!  한 세트로 3개 버전의 타임머신을 모두 만들수는 있는데.. 하나로 결정하기 어려우니 두 개를 더 서야하나 고민 중…

Samsung Galaxy Note 3

WP_20131210_002

Finally, bought Galaxy Note 3. Amazing devices, and 30 min of work to set up for my wife made my lovely ATIV S look so tiny and old-fashioned..

Beautifully designed sold square look and fast processer with tons of software loaded into. Feels like some of the softwares are still useless but I do see Samsung’s effort to differentiate the device with lots of nice softwares/applications. (i.e Galaxy to Galaxy migration app worked beautifully smooth..)

Anyhow, the take for me was – now I got a “small android ablet” called Samsung Galaxy 1 in my hand… 🙂

Samyang Ramen

아주 오랜만에 먹은 삼양라면… 맛이 항간의 소문대로 약간 바꿔었다. (소세지 국물맛이 사라짐) 허나 신라면에 비해 덜 자극적이고 맛은 여전히 훌륭하고, 전통까지 풍기는 가느다란 면발이 여전히  훌륭하다.

라면이 건강에만 나쁘지 않다면 얼마나 좋을까? 🙂
