Korean Food and Bar Hopping

I went to have breakfast at a Korean public cafeteria. Eri had kong-guksu (Cold Noodles in Soybean Broth), and I had gimbap. I worked on my trading bots’ programs, but ChatGPT was not helpful. I could not get the result that I wanted, so I gave up on it for the time being. We went to a craft beer bar. It was just as pleasant as the last time I visited. We tried to enter a bar that we had never visited before, but its rules were so unreasonable that we decided to go to another one instead. We then visited a soup restaurant, but we ordered only boiled dumplings. The staff told us that such a small order was not possible, but they accepted our request in the end. It was the perfect portion for us. The total cost was only 10,000 KRW (€5.81), including beer. Next, we visited a fried chicken restaurant. It was also quite good. Finally, we visited a traditional Korean pub. We had Korean Potato Pancake. When we left, a staff member, who was the owner’s wife, ran after us and handed us our mobile phones. We had completely forgotten them. We watched television in our hotel room. The program was a food review show. Normally, I am not interested in that kind of program, but the main presenter made a good impression on us, and we laughed a lot. I fell asleep around 11:30 pm.
