Dinner at The Traditional Restaurant in Gyeongju

in travel •  7 years ago  (edited)

As I wrote in previous posting, one of the difficult thing was taking a meal in restaurant.
It is little bit inconvenient to take a meal in Korean traditional restaurant.
They used to serve for minimum 2 people due to the side dish.

The side dish is very important in Korean food. So if the restaurant serve the side dish for one people, it can not be profitable for restaurant.

After looking around the Choi family’s house of the honorable wealth, I’d like to have a dinner.
I was hungry, because I had walked all day long that day.

There was a restaurant. But I couldn’t decide to enter into there.

It’s because they would not serve a meal for one person.
While hesitating whether enter or not in front of the gate and looking the inside of the restaurant, one waitress suggested me to enter into the restaurant.

Actually I was very difficult situation, if I went to the downtown to having a dinner, it would take about 1 hour. But I was too hungry and tired.

Her suggestion seemed an angels voice for me.

As I took the photo above, the restaurant building was the traditional style architecture.

Their garden was so beautiful.

They had a menu for one person. It was the Bibimbap.
It was the mixed rice with various vegetables and meats(beef).
More impressive thing was the appearance of the table was so beautiful.

Their Bibimbap was little bit different from others.

The rice was yellow colored with some herbal plants

It looked nice. The side dish was perfect.
It was a lightly seasoned meal.

The night scene of this restaurant was awesome.

I’d like to recommend you drop by this restaurant when you visit Korea.

I heard first time about 'Bibimbap'. But I think it contain all essential macro molecules need per day.

Very interesting story! In our country in any restaurant and one person can order any dish from the menu. Your information is new to me. And the restaurant is very beautiful, especially the garden.

The photos are absolutely breathtaking architectural design coupled with historic warmth. Korean food is delicious and yes, I am very fond of the side dishes that accompany a well seasoned meal. Resteemed

a very beautiful and wonderful pastime I really like my friends. Friend help me. I really need your help.
Food beautiful.

The pics are surely breathtaking architectural layout coupled with ancient warm temperature. Korean meals is delicious and sure, i am very keen on the side dishes that accompany a properly pro meal

Great post! Wow, they serve all of that as separate dishes in one course? That's amazing. My daughter had a Korean roommate her first semester in college. She came for a family dinner to my mother-in-law's house and cooked a traditional chicken stir fry dish with carrots and onions that has become a family favorite. Here in Oklahoma City, there is a Korean restaurant about a mile from my house. My wife and I intend to eat dinner there on a date night in the near future. But, we sometimes forget. Nice share!

Still the best tasting food is the one made by the authentic and traditional cook. The bibimbap meal I tried here in Singapore is completely different from the dinner that you had.

Your journey is an extraordinary story. I think korean food is very tasty. not just in Asia, but the world also admit it

Being from South Korea and living in US for 42 years, I would love to go to the above mentioned Korean Restaurant when visit again Korea. What brought you to korea?

happy to have fun my friend @slowwalker

The lights in the night are so charming, and these Korean food are always so delicate and tasty, uh.. ..yummy!

Taking an image, freezing a moment, reveals how rich reality truly is.
good job :-)

It is a very beautiful restaurant.
Yellow rice is excellent dish ^^

It is not easy to find a restaurant without a menu for one person.
One hour to go elsewhere.
I think that the side dishes are good and the amount is large.
I think that food photography was also very good.

Wow,beautiful .The buildings are looking so awesome and the foods really watering my mouth.Enjoy your meal.

I always thing of when I will be in this type of cool, neat and beautiful environment. Infact, the place is nice to stay and even all the foods are very delicious without even tasting them..

wow! really so looking nice place fabulous photography and testy delicious food. thanks for share

Your article always interesting. Since I was crazy bout Korea I've never ate korean food. That rice with yellow colored similarly with Indonesian food name yellow rice. That food had made for some big festival like anniversary.

Hello Slowwakler. The restaurant looks like out of a movie or an asian fairytale, really great building, I got the desire to take a break in such a restaurant :O The colorful dinner table is so different compared to european kitchen and I really like everything that is different, cause it is very unusual for me. Even if I will go to an asian restaurant in Germany it is of course still not the same . Thanks for your recommendation, greetings Lena

super

The lights make me feel so safe! The food really looks tasty!

Thanks for sharing! Looks great.

the perfect setting, the beauty of the night and the house is very beautiful.

여기 그 달걀 잔뜩 들어간 유명한 김밥집 근처 같아 보이네요. 전에 갔을 때 김밥집 문 닫아서 못 먹고 헤맸었는데 여기서 먹을 걸 그랬어요ㅠㅠ 1인분에 얼마 정도 하나요?

Looks like these are some of the very typical foods that are in the area that are served in this restaurant.
It was so wonderful when I imagined it @slowwalker.

I hope one day to go to Korea for 2 things, taekwondo and Korean food (nice pics).

What was the name of the restaurant? These are some great pictures and the food looks delicious. I’m glad the restaurant decided to take 1 customer and not 2. You seemed to have had a long day!

an incredible adventurer, really amazing @slowwalker

Traditional restaurant, the courtyard looks beautiful and beautiful. When you go inside, you show a simple food menu but look very delicious with yellow rice. In my area there is also yellow rice or nasi lemak which is racik with traditional herb ...

What a beautiful place it is! The dinner looks delicious.

Nice post

Wow good and nice post @slowaker

wowwwwww very good @slowwalker

I am always eagerly consuming your content as i am trying to learn about Korea from the first lips. I will definitely spend a few month in Seoul and other pats of Korea as i find it magnificent and magic with all that culture and absolutely extraordinary people!

right sir

this magnificent restaurant is my friend. and his food is very good my friend. and please help me once my friend yesslowwalker

I know that you're interested in Museums and Art. did you visit the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam? I was there a few days ago! it was amazing. even posted about it if you're interested in seeing.

Those are great pictures. I'm started to get hungry and it's 8 am right now. My former boss was from South Korea. I found a great traditional family style restaurant he loved. Every time he was in town that's where we went to eat. I hope to go to South Korea one day. I really enjoy the cuisine.

wow great post. Does this restaurant have a website? I want to check it out when I am in Korea. Thanks.

Nice post, I love that

Oh! 경주! It's my hometown~ (Now I'm in Seoul, though)
You had a 비빔밥 정식(Bibimbop JeongSik) -Korean call it like this- !! It's a sort of Korean style table d'hôte including Mixed-Rice-Bowl for a main dish.
Your photographs are all incredible and so beautiful~
Like you, I also like to take a picture during journey.
Although I'm a steemit newbie, so my steempower is not strong, I voted your post :)
And I followed you, right now. I hope you'll post more good pictures~ Have a nice day!

It's amazing! In korean dramas, I always look at foods coz they look so yummy. and it looks like Koreans like to eat.

someday soon, I'll get to taste each and every korean food there is when I get to visit Korea. It's been on my number 1 place to go once I have the means to travel abroad. Keeping my fingers crossed.

i love food posts :)

WOW, the Bibimbap looks amazing! I really love that menu/dish, but not so many restaurants I know serving this high quality. Don't know any in my home town in the Netherlands. Know one in Berlin though. Never been to Korea, still on my list to go, even if it just for the food. Bibimbap and Korean BBQ, simply wow dishes. On a scale of 1 to 10 with 10 being excellent, how do you rate the Bibimbap you had?

The table is indeed very nice! Looks like to be very old. AT least, for the western world, Europe, these type of tables are usually very old. Also the pots your Bibimbap is served in looks very nice for what I can see; In Europe they usually serve in plastic pots, they seem not to have the metal ones you got your meal in.

Congratulations @slowwalker!
