Best wishes with the antibiotics!

Thanks!

I'd like that! I don't get Korean often anymore because I think only one place has it in Baton Rouge

*pencils in one Korean meal for Readercon*

It's a Hawaiian restaurant rather than a Korean restaurant, which I hadn't thought to check. However, I am hoping they really do serve that thing with Spam and gimchi, which I grew up eating and still feel fond of.

I feel like there should be a decent chance of Spam at a Hawaiian restaurant.

ggakdugi (daikon? gimchi, only instead of daikon we call it mu)
mulgimchi ("water gimchi," it's not spicy at all and is more vinegary)
the usual cabbage gimchi (baekgimchi maybe?)
oigimchi (cucumber gimchi)


Looking at their online menu, WooRi does both cucumber gimchi and the ordinary cabbage kind—I'm guessing the daikon/mu variant is what they call "radish kimchi"—and then there's something called "white kimchi," which could be the non-spicy kind? Or could be something completely different? I could have sworn I remembered a fifth, but if so, it's not on this menu.

I don't see gimbap, but I think I will order the seaweed-wrapped potato noodles the next time I'm there. It's seaweed.
