Woops. One of the best things about our trip was the sweet, charming, and artsy little bed and breakfast where we stayed called 126 Guesthouse Mansion. (Please note Shiru the dog sitting on the bookshelf. This place has character.) Our beds were floor mattresses, our breakfast was kimchi, and our bathroom was a shower. It was authentically Korean and authentically refreshing. In case you needed another reason to make this your next stop in Seoul, meet Hyunchung, who runs the whole operation with her mom and sisters. And who is awesome. That fried thing oozing with honey pretty much sums up our eating experience in Seoul. Seoul = fun. In case you want to know what I’ve been eating every day this week, it’s this Skinny Garlic Fried Rice. In case you want to know what I’ll be eating all weekend, it’s Mango Float Cupcakes because this afternoon I found a cupcake shop right down the road. Balance, duh. Happy Happy Weekend! 4.6 from 5 reviews Additional add-ins: red pepper, edamame, scrambled or fried egg, tofu, chicken, shrimp, broccoli, and fresh herbs.
