Ärende: pancake  was: Funky
===========================
Hi Nancy,

 RH> Most likely not. We did get to the Korean place today for lunch and
 RH> had their lunch specials (what we call "bento boxes, even tho they're
 RH> not really so). Steve had the spicy chicken, said it was on the dry
 RH> side. I had the spicy pork--it had too much coating on the meat. Both
 RH> were quite spicy tho.

 NB> Korean version thereof, anyway...  ;)  Sounds like neither one quite
 NB> came up to your expectations...

Overall, I'd say good, but not great. Next time Steve plans to have the
squid again & I'll get my usual beef bulgogi.


 RH> They do offer a seafood pancake but it was $12. so we didn't get it.

 NB> I think it runs about that at Seoul House, at least for the full-size
 NB> one... but then, that's big enough to worth it, too.... :)

That's probably what this was; I was hoping they would have an appetiser
sized one we could split.


 RH> The box had a small tossed salad, a man du dumpling,
 RH> a couple pieces of battered/fried some sort of winter squash, a big
 RH> scoop of rice, a folded egg thing like we saw at Fu's and a small
 RH> piece of sushi, not nearly as good as Fu's.

 NB> Well, of course not...  (G)  Besides, I've been told on good authority
 NB> that one shouldn't order Japanese foods in a Korean restaurant... ;)

The sushi thing came as part of the box--it was close to falling apart
(not rolled tight enough) when I picked it up.


 NB> Was the egg thing any good...?

Not bad, light, multiple layers. Since we didn't have Fu's, we had no
good gague of what to expect. It had some red and green (pepper?) flecks
in it but seemed a bit mild, no peppery taste so maybe it was something
else.


 RH> Small sides to share were
 RH> potatoes in syrup, cucumber and cabbage kim chees and bean sprouts.

 NB> Pretty typical..  :)

Yes, normal for them.


 NB>  RH>> We stopped in the local Gander Mountain sporting goods store on
 NB> the  RH>> way home; they have a small metal pan, similar to what Fu
 NB> described  RH>> he was looking for to cook his egg thing in. Steve
 NB> took a couple of  RH>> pictures of it; he'll probably attach them to
 NB> an e-mail to you.

 NB> Sounds interesting.. :)  Tell Steve not to make the email too big,
 NB> though... over a half meg and I'll likely have problems... Might be
 NB> better to send to Richard, same as mine except rjbackus instead of
 NB> backus...  ;)  He can handle the bigger emails a lot easier... :)

OK, I'll make sure he knows to send the pictures to Richard. Probably
easier to see on the computer than the phone.
