Saturday morning I trekked all the way to Lynnwood to stock up on Korean goodies at Paldo World, affectionately known as “North Korea”. The Korean communities of Seattle lie just to the north (lynwood) and the south (lakewood) hence the nick names.
Raspberry flavored noodles for Bi Bim Naeng Myeon. I don’t know. What do you think? Would you eat it?
In other Korean eating news Matt Gross, the New York Times writer who contacted me about where to eat in Korea published his article in the travel section of the Times this week. His portrait of Seoul is charming and absolutely sent me nostalgic for evenings under the orange tents sipping on soju and eating ddokboggie. Sigh.

I say no to raspberry noodles. But, I guess in terms of fruit, I do love Asian pear with cold noodles. Still, it’s a big difference between pear and raspberry!
