I was a super picky kid when I was younger. I guess I still kind of am in a way but I've definitely become more adventurous as I've grown up. Now, I'm game to try almost anything. Food has grown on me and I've given a lot of things a shot.
Korean Food is one of them. I'm not a fan of Korean food really. My cousins are in love with it so whenever we all get together in Long Island I always find myself in a Korean Restaurant wishing for anything else. A piece of bread could make me happy. Still, cousin bonding time leaves Emily as the odd man out so Korean food it is.
What was funny was that this time around, I went with one of my best friends. She has a habit of paying for food whenever we go anywhere and won't let me pull out my wallet so I told her we could go wherever she wanted to. She chose Korean. Believe me, I tried to talk her out of it.
Not being a fan of Korean food, I had no idea what to order and let her take the reigns. She went crazy with a few appetizers and we both ordered Bi Bim Bop as our main meal and it was actually incredible. This was such a great dish that I wasn't expecting. It was cooked well, so flavorful, and had so many great ingredients. I would actually go back in a heartbeat for this dish. I guess after this trip, she made me realize Korean food can be really really great.
