Delicacies in South Korea
Korea has its own very distinctive cuisine, quite different from Chinese or Japanese. Rice is the staple food and a typical Korean meal consists of rice, soup, rice water and eight to 20 side dishes of vegetables, fish, poultry, eggs, bean-curd and sea plants. Most Korean soups and side dishes are heavily laced with red pepper.Most major hotels will offer a selection of restaurants, serving Korean, Japanese and Chinese cuisine or Western-style food. The most common type of drinking establishment is the wine bar (suljip), but there are also pubs serving well-known European brands. Koreans offer glasses of liquor to each other as a gesture of camaraderie; never fill your own glass and remember, juniors pour for seniors.
National specialities:
• Bibimbap (boiled rice mixed with vegetables and chilli peppers)
• Kimchi (Korean national dish, highly spiced pickle of Chinese cabbage or white radish with turnips, onions, salt, fish, chestnuts and red pepper)
• Bulgogi (marinated, charcoal-broiled beef barbecue)
• Grilled galbi (seasoned ribs)
• Haemultang (seafood stew)
National drinks:
• Yakju (refined pure liquor fermented from rice)
• Soju (like vodka and made from potatoes or grain)
• Korean beer: Cass, Hite and OB
• Makgeolli and donggongju (milky liquor)
• Ginseng wine is strong and sweet, similar to brandy
Legal drinking age: 20
Tipping: Although not a Korean custom, most hotels and other tourist facilities add a 10% service charge to bills. Other South Korea Travel Guides Public Holidays Things To Do Getting There Key Facts Stay Safe and Healthy Food and Drink Duty Free General Information Money Climate Shopping
