I thought this walk-through would be fun, but it was actually work. I'll try to remember not to do it again. |
Finally, here's me eating lunch at Ongwhasanbang, the day when my hair was just a little too smooth. My scalp itches when I look at it. The cool thing about this picture is the fore and back ground - not the middle. In the back there are antique jars on a shelf on one side and on the other are an assortment of antique lids. Korean pottery has this really great earthy quality to it which adds a lot of warmth to a room. I really like this sort of "traditional" aesthetic. In the middle, directly behind me are a bunch of weights made from stone, just hanging because it looks nice. On the table in front of me are a bunch of dishes made by Mr. Shin, the potter we visited that day. That pancake in front of me and just a little to my right is pa'jon, the stuff I always talk about: green onions grilled in an egg batter. Mmm, so good. At this meal I got to use brass chopsticks and spoon. The chopsticks weren't tapered in the least and I kept getting confused over which end was for holding and which was for eating. |
