Passing through K-town on my way from a doctor's appointment, I spotted these racks of breads and pastries being wheeled into Koryodang.

Maybe the long overdue chill in the air has reawakened our cave-dweller metabolism, encouraging us to pack on some winter weight, because we have been feeding a powerful craving for sweets over the past few weeks. Not that we’re complaining too much–there is something liberating about scarfing down ... Read More

"Mini rice balls" are not for everyone - the sweet rice base adds a gummy chewiness that we quite like but can be disconcerting if you're not accustomed to rice cake desserts.

Ever since we had the glutinous donuts from Paris Bakery, we've been craving another taste.
