Banchan and blogs


         Over the weekend, Mr. Lovey and I went out for some Korean food. If you've been to a Korean restaurant you might know that it is customary to serve a selection of small side dishes called banchan. For this entry I thought I'd share a small selection of posts (blog banchan, if you will) that I've enjoyed recently:


         Getting back to the food: we were hardcore and ordered this spicy seafood stew. Yum. Have you ever tried Korean food? What are your spring obsessions?

Love, Dovey.

  1. That stew looks so good! I love tofu stew but it's so filling but great for chilly SF afternoons!

    I am a kimchee ho! Especially for Kimchee fried rice...

  8. Love Korean food- I could eat kimchi with pretty much anything and make my own.

    Spring obsessions are my new leopard print ballet pumps from Kurt Geiger and Jaeger lightweight wool trousers.
