Today we took our friends to one of our most loved restaurants that we have found here in Korea. Our little party was joined by some of the other teachers from school and we all headed down to Hongdae.
We were seated in a private room and then the food started rolling in. And continued and continued until our table was a puzzle of piled plates and heaps of food. It reminded me of Tetris, trying to fit each dish on the table. Our chef friend came in and visited with us, bringing us delicate slivers of dark bluefin belly and yellowfin cheeks. We munched on fish eye sockets and beautiful pink sashimi that melted in our mouths. We had a lot of fun and stuffed ourselves to our limits.
Tomorrow is Tess' last night in Korea before she moves on to Japan on Wednesday. We aren't sure what we will do yet, but we are sure it will be most memorable. It has been an absolute joy having her here; I have been having the time of my life showing her around this amazing country. It'll be a sad farewell, even though it will only be for a few more months before we return to the States.
