Abalone

It arrived as a Lunar New Year gift set, so I steamed it in a hurry..

Tasty..

Many thanks to the person who sent it.

Mayak mini gimbap

Eaten once in a while, these are genuinely good.

I have been working out how far you can reproduce jjajangmyeon at home..

The noodles are a bit tough, but the jjajang sauce comes out pretty close if you use good pork. Jjamppong looks easier to reproduce..

Lotte Mart pork sundae

Pork sundae seems to be turning out well these days. Though it was really good at first, and the taste feels like it has been drifting since..

Homeplus pork sundae

The taste seems about the same and the prices differ a lot. I should try more of the premium sundae..

Paldo Bibimbap

You can make all sorts of things with the bibim sauce, and they even sell the sauce on its own. Learned something new..

Gratin

Of the things you just microwave, gratin might be the closest to the taste of a restaurant. I do not have time to go to a bistro either, so I am working out how to eat well at home.

Linguine

With noodle dishes the sauce may be fine, but the noodles fall a long way short. The carbs are the part that stops tasting good.

Big Mac

I turned up at a gathering and there were Big Macs. Sometimes a meal looks like this..

A sandwich from Paris Baguette

Cheap, and pretty decent.

Camembert from Sangha Cheese

Cheese prices seem to have got much better lately. Maybe because of all the 1+1 promotions. It was good enough.
