Restaurant specializing in Dog

For three months I have been dining every week at this restaurant and another further down the road. I nibble at the Kimchi and when I got tired of the boiled chicken I started hassling for meat, and the other day when I was left alone for 10 minutes, I  started talking to a couple next to my table, and discovered its a restaurant specializing in Dog.

The iron pot outside, which I thought was a copper, is a traditional cooking pot for cooking dog.

The garlic and eel I sort of nibbled at turned out to be pickled dog, and the meat that was always served was also dog.

I was appalled as I had told Mr B that I did not choose to eat dog.

On Friday I decided to take Daniel and Miri for lunch at the other restaurant which we also eat at. On the way I showed them this and they laughed, as it clearly said  'Specializing in dog " in Korean of course. I took them to the other restaurant, and they laughed again. It too is a dog restaurant. Sigh!!!!

They do have good food, so we enjoyed the Kimchi very much.

At least now when I go there, I will know to eat the fish and the rice and fried eggs.

Korea is fascinating....

lol.. 1 of my best friends growing up got transferred to korea, she was in army. She told me about the farms that are in korea, where they raise dogs so they can eat them. ALso, what you said in other blog about a man's world in korea. Yes, I agree with that. I heard about that. Well it seems to me you are very cultured and have seen the world. I hope that one day I can be lucky to do the same. When I seen your pictures of all the places you've been to, I thought that was so awesome. I also love your pictures too! :-)
