Hearts and Seoul

STREET EATS
Seoul's pojangmachas would be any chowthusiast's heaven-- it was certainly mine. Our finds while traipsing through Insadong and Myeong-dong.
sausage skewers; sweetish like Pampanga's Best
a cartful (a cart!!!) of crispy pata; just the sight of these hog leg hotmommas was enough to clog my arteries
kochi eomuk, or fish cake, just like kekiam, resting in their sushi rolling mats before being skewered
gukwappang, batter poured on piping hot floral casts, crispy on the outside with a silky custard center
cream puff, which was so massive, each bite ensured that you got some cream filling on your nose
chestnuts roasted on an open fire
grilled octopus tentacles, the thought of chomping on the dotting of suckers was a bit creepy for me though
sweet potato fries
belgian waffle which comes with a helping of cream
dried fish jerky; which smelled of Decembers in Cubao
cotton candy clouds
churros con azúcar y canela (me gusta!)
I hear these are called potato tornadoes; whole spuds spiralled and deep fried, I suspect in chicken fat, so flavorsome they were
and my best for last: dakkochi, grilled chicken and leek kebab, basted in sweet chili marinade, which cooks to a tawny honey glaze and is yum to the nth- this gets a thousand thumbs up.

Yes. And I wonder how I did. It was the most amazing bacon I have ever had the pleasure of breaking fast on.
2. Did you? (last photo)
Of course... Not.

I'll make sure to whisper that in (insert name)'s ear.
Cheonggye-cheon stream is pretty romantic, if I may say so myself.

Dream away. They were really good. But the chicken and leek skewers were the pot of gold in my foodfest rainbow.
