Thanksgiving in Korea
25.11.2004
My first thanksgiving in Korea (american thanksgiving that is). It’s a little odd – the US Holidays – over here because their isn’t really the hub-bub or commotion in the states, so it’s no big deal. So let me break down the situation for you. From what I understand, Koreans… not big on oven cooking, so my oven isn’t that big. You couldn’t even fit a 12lb bird in there! On top of that, birds… not that common around here.
So this season, it’s to one of the American Hotels for dinner. Just like mom used to make – if your mom used to work at the Four Seasons that is! So it was off to the Hyatt Hotel with my Eggi for my first overseas Turkey Day (and her’s period). The meal was exquisite, but being from the northeast suburbs, exquisite isn’t really the words that’s supposed to describe a holiday that’s based on stuffing yourself to till you can’t get off the couch. Regardless… scallop appetizer, pumpkin soup and a slice of white meat with minimal stuffing and potatoes… not bad.
Next year if it’s not a trip to the states, it’ll be FULL bird delivered with all the fixens from the US Army Base.
