Korea Busan Food Bibimbap

7 June 2022

Eating Bibimbap and not much else

Briefly exploring Beomil in Busan

My legs were a bit worn out this evening so I did not go far and took only a handful of boring photos. Why does handful not have two l's on the end of it?
Anyway, I went to Beomil, an area between areas famous for gold shops. I did not buy any gold.
Nearby underground there is one of the ubiquitous underground malls but this one specialised in piercings, with photos, of everything you can pierce, everything. I considered it for a while then realised it will make the airport experience even more complex, it is one thing to take your belt off, its another to remove a gold bar from mr winky and put it in the tray.

After that realisation I was hungry and just headed to the first place I saw and therefore got the thing that every store sells.

Beomil has a department store, Hyundai flavoured. The basement food places looked decent. The Where's Wally promotion, 'Where's happiness?' is a bit unusual. Makes it seem like Wally is about to end it all.

There were actually stores selling gold, and people peering through those weird eye glass things looking at it like they knew what was going on. I thought it best to not photograph them.

And, here it is, bibimbap. Deconstructed for some reason? A lot of Korean places give you raw beef with the bibimbap, and not in the stone bowl. Actually beef tartare is one of the more common meals. I had it once on a previous trip, its ok, but its nicer cooked. It is probably most popular after pork cutlet, and usually just served as mound of beef with a well in the middle and a raw egg, chilled, which you eat chilled.
Last day in Busan tomorrow.
