its summer? EAT CHICKEENNNNNN!

I am not really sure why its like popular to 
eat chicken during summer in korea
I heard that it is to replenish the energy 
that we lose due to the heat?

TODAY's TOPIC : STEAMED CHICKEN (JJIMDAK  찜닭)
**usually they don't come with rice, so you got to order yourself**

I have eaten 2 different kind of branch one.. so here comes ~

봉추 찜닭!

they have branches almost everywhere, esp shopping centres! ^^
I would say it is DELICIOUSSSS~





Here's another brand made by Se7en! 
*not as much branches as the above (I'm not that sure though)
so this is how it looks


the HONGDAE branch that is near the Etude (after the carpark street)


picture in the restaurant showing BIG BANG that went to *SHOW FACE* 
kyaaaa TOP with specs 
(fangirl!!!!, not wait I am not a fangirl but 
handsome guy goes by that kind of moment *ahaha)

SO you may include this JJIMDAK into 
one of your meals when you are here in KOREAAAAA!

have a great weekend! 좋은 주말 보내세요~

Want to change currency?

So you changed currency back in your homeland 
and realise you don't have enough?

Worry not!

You can easily change your currency at 
myeongdong OR woori bank!
As I'm a singaporean so naturally I 
know where to change for better rates
For SGD of course. HAH.

1. WOORI BANK


Safest place to change your money.  *^^*
also, you can easily find woori bank as well.
I dont recommend the others like hana or keb or kb because
their rates aren't that good you see....

For Banks, please note that they only operates from 9am till 4pm!

After operating hours, you can only exchange 
at foreign currency exchange shops~

2. Myeongdong!!
well since its a tourist spot, you can easily 
change foreign currency here.
but I would recommend you to compare the 
prices around....
uh.. I know one place that is better than woori bank but may be hard to find...

So you exit from myeongdong exit 6 and 
walk towards your left, you walk until there is a 
cross section and you turn left.. walk on you 
will see mango, spao and then uniqlo.. 
walk further down you will see a cross section
(On your left there will be a spectacle shop)
Turn left and you will spot a very old currency exchange shop..
:D rates are 5won lesser than forex from what I checked last time...
*subject to change I dont take any responsibility*

**usally operates from 10am till 10pm!

So yeapppp!!! ^^ Sometimes changing money in 
korea may have a better rate than those in 
your country.. so up for you to decide.
Of course you have to change some even 
if you decide to change in korea
since u need to take transport first!

Cafe hopping? Go to POEM 카페! ^^

HI~!

So Mireen is back for food paradise <3 
But.. I need to diet yet I just couldn't resist myself for 
dessert after a meal with my friends 
ㅠㅠ

here comes..... OREO BINGSU <3
I personally think this is similar to mcflurry oreo 
but its something different to it... hees

honey grapefruit <3 ! kyaaa
I didn't tried this but this seemed to be something popular in korea right now :D
a mixture of sweetness and sourness

they actually have 2 storeys! 

here's a peek of their menu!
although it is a little pricey, all coffee
comes with a free cake!!
like....


WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



here's another picture to show their decoration~


they actually sell chocolate fondue. kyyyaaaa!
temptations ㅠㅠ
hagen daz is actually selling something similar too..
but.
BUT.
by twice of this price..

WHAT?!

then I should as well get this huh? it looks the same... 


So here's a little map of it here, but
hmm.. I think the 명동역 should be a bit more far away... 

okay so you exit from exit 6 myeong dong subway mrt station, 
you will see UNIQLO. 
so you walk further down, 
you will see a cross section,
and you turn to your left side towards SPAO.
if you see SPAO. there should be a way towards your right
so you turn in, and you will see VIP restaurant and some small eateries 
and your keychain shopping and stuffs. 

NOW, as you walk down the road, POEM should be somewhere 
near to the end mm..
somewhere near 설빙!
*sorry i forgot what's the shop on the first level >.<


so the shop should look like this on the 2nd level

CHEERS <3

A LAND...

So.. what's a land? @land?
TADDAAHHHH~

So, what is this?!
This is actually a popular shopping store available currently at Myeongdong and garosugil for Koreans~
What kind of clothes style can you find?

A Land's
for more designs, please visit http://www.a-land.co.kr/shop/main/index.php
This is an example of what you can find in A land.
The thing I like about A land is their quality.
Some may be pricey from 30-100 and above,
but if you can find, there are also great grabs available at 10-20! (especially at the vintage area)

So come on down to A land in either Myeongdong or garosugil's branch!
