Today we took a 20 min cab into Ilsan and headed to La Festa and Western Dom. These are two vibey shopping/eating areas that the inhabitants of English Village often frequent.
Of course there was plenty of shopping to be done...so mom and I did our thing while the boys hit some balls in a baseball batting cage and got started on the beer outside the local family mart.
Once mom and I were all shopped out, we all took a trip down "meat-street" and settled for a galbi meal - barbequed meat that you cook and eat at the table.
As with any Korean meal the galbi of course comes with many sides including a cold seaweed soup, kimchi, hot jiggae soup, radishes, garlic, lettuce and an egg/tofu dish.
After the delicious meal we went on to Homeplus a large department store where we stocked up on more groceries and home supplies before making our way back home to English Village.
