Korean Food And More

So, this post is a bit out of order, because it's actually from last weekend.  But, better late than never, right?

Korean food was always readily available in LA.  Koreatown was only about a 25-minute drive away from us and, of course, Chris' mom cooked Korean food for us whenever we saw her.  But, here in London, it's not so easily accessible.  After not having eaten it in a while, last Saturday, Chris said he was craving Korean food for dinner, so I quickly hopped on-line and found a Korean restaurant that was fairly close (Soho) and had received good ratings on yelp.com.  It was a bit of trek getting there, because we took the bus, not realizing that there was some kind of street fair going on and that all road traffic was being diverted around the exact area we wanted to go to.  But, we finally made it and we were pleasantly surprised to see that many of the tables were filled with Koreans eating dinner - this is always a good sign :)  The food ended up being pretty good.  Nathan ate more than we have seen him eat in a long time - I guess he was missing Korean food too!  We will definitely be going back to this place in the future.

Here are some pictures from the weekend:

On the bus heading to Soho for Korean food.  This may be around the time we realized that the streets were all shut down and the bus was being detoured away from where we wanted to go.

Starting to get bored on the bus, because it is taking way longer than it is supposed to.

Yum - Nathan loves Korean food!



We learned our lesson - we took the tube home.

Nathan loves his Uncle Casey!

A quick weekend breakfast at Cafe Nero.  The coffee here is our favorite.  It tastes more like what you get in the States.  For some reason, even Starbucks tastes a little funny here.  

The fort we built in the living room.  Saturday was a bit rainy in the morning.

Nathan in his fort.  I have had to limit the fort to rainy days, because otherwise he wants it up all the time.

Nathan and I in the fort.  We were reading books in the fort with his little mini-flashlight :)
