And we came to this alley....We wondered what was the building on our right. One of the unique thing about Korea is you can find ancient building structures in the mist of modern buildings.
I felt bad to make my cousin and her husband walked so much, so I decided to ask some Koreans for directions. If I am alone, I would probably walk a few rounds before asking for help! I approached two Korean office workers by showing them my map and the word "장뚜가리 Jangtugari". Surprisingly, one of the Korean guy knew 장뚜가리Jangtugari and his English was very fluent. Hmm...that shows that Jangtugari is popular.
He told us we were walking in the wrong direction and need to retrace our steps a bit. He even offered to bring us there!! Oh gosh...we were very touched but we felt bad becos he was going to meet his friends for dinner. I told him we can make our way there if we could just show us the direction. He asked if there's any special reason to choose Jangtugari and suggested a nearby restaurant, which he frequently patronised if we wanted to eat 삼겹살 Samgyeopsal.
Yes, I wanted to check out Jangtugari becos of its 삼겹살 Samgyeopsal and 돌솥밥 Dolsotbap. The Korean guy told us the Samgyeopsal that he recommended will be a bit oily. Hmmm...oily?? Sounds strange. Well, we took up his suggestion and the restaurant was just a few steps away.
