Dining

Much as expected from a busy Asian metropolis such as Seoul, there are plenty of places to enjoy all sorts of culinary creations. From traditional Korean restaurants to flavourful and endlessly varied street food, along with a plethora of eateries serving cuisine from all corners of the globe, hungry tourists should be more than adequately catered to. In Korea, every sit-down meal is accompanied by kimchi (a spicy pickled cabbage) and some of the must-tries include bibimpab (vegetables and rice with an egg on top), Korean-style BBQ, and the many side dishes (banchan) that come with a staple of steamed rice.
