I love food. During my time in Korea, I have been collecting recipes and anecdotes about Korean food. I also have been working on survival techniques for westerners living in Korea.

In this journal are recipes for cooking Korean food in Korea or abroad and recipes for recreating western food with Korean ingredients.

But mostly, it's about enjoying life.

Join Us for Some Food -- and Mischief


Trying something new here. We're starting a bit of a food group called ZenKimchi 식 Ruffians. It's a play on the work "sik" in Korean, which means "cuisine" but also sounds like "chic" or "sick." "Ruffians" is the term used for fans of Anthony Bourdain and his eat-life-to-the-fullest philosophy.

If you live in Seoul or will be in Seoul at some time, please sign up for this group. It's safe. Your information will not be shared with evil spammers. What I do is just insert your information into the ZenKimchi eVite account. When an event is coming, you'll receive an eVite. From there, you can RSVP and get details on when and where things will take place.

There's no club fee or anything like that. We just get together and split the bill.

Our initial event will be a small get together at Sh-wing for some chicken wings and beer. Our first big event will be Dog Day. Our friend Young Joon is an expert on dog meat (I call it "dork," like pork but with dog). He will set us up with a good dog restaurant with some famous Bosintang (dog soup) and steamed dog meat. It's the same stuff pictured on the top banner of the web site. Tentatively, it will be the first Saturday in August, which coincides with many English teachers' vacations. Don't know if that's a good or bad thing. But it will be a hot, hot day.

A good day for some dork soup.
