Big Mama @ Kim Tian Road, Tiong Bahru, Sg

Today I had lunch with my Korean language classmates; it was in such a long time ever since I had seen them! We catch up, and then mostly of our discussion was about our trips to Korea.

The food at Big Mama was really good, the lady boss was from Busan. She was a very friendly lady, and kept saying that her food has no MSG, hahaha. Anyways its really delicious. See below!

 After finishing the stir fry meat, we can additionally pour rice, and they stir-fry rice for us! With additional ingredients like, the dried seaweed, some leeks, and a little sesame oil if I didn't remember wrongly. Bbokkeumbap. Yum.

This was suyuk, its really tasty, you either dip the meat into the sauce on the right(sour based), or the left(salty based) and eat it with the cucumber and celery. The middle pink thinly sliced radish will be matched with the slight spicy bean sprouts, with the meat. 

 Lots, and lots of conversations.

Actually in general, korean food is all about rice, and rice and rice. Koreans eat rice for breakfast, rice / noodles for lunch, and rice for dinner. In fact, rice and noodles are their staple, very much like chinese. The difference is they are accompanied with lots of seasoned side dishes. Very filling food to fill our stomach, lots of fibre and carbohydrates. I believe it has got to do with their history and culture.

You will realise that you don't have a lot of variety of food, but yet, when eating them you get full easily. When I reached the restaurant, the rest of the unnies were already there. They had proceeded to order a mix vege rice (bibimbap), and I was given to try and finish it. Haha. I finished it of course, but I was already halfway full because of the rice.

Lets meet up again, asap, say next month again? Before everyone starts flying. ;)
