Day 3 in Korea

Since this site is not only about food, but about our adventures & experiences as the Perutbesi duo, I'll upload pictures of people as well & hope that these pictures will add a special touch to our site :)

Our first 3 rounds of debates were held today. Breakfast & lunch were served in the English Village itself, while dinner was a grand one out of the village! Muahaha...

- Breakfast in the English Village: Rice, fired fish, potatoes. salad, tofu, & oranges.

- Lunch: Spagetti in cream sauce & red italian sauce, cream of corn soup, pineapple cubes in syrup, rice with kimchi & meat cutlets.

The main event for this day was the Championship Dinner, held at the KINTEX, an exhibition place like the PWTC in Kuala Lumpur. Yeah, it's only day 3 of our debates, but they had the championship dinner earlier as some were to leave the debates before the grand finals. In the championship dinner was the public speaking competition, which gave a kick to the event :)

Everyone was dressed nicely & it felt as if we were at the Oscar Awards Ceremony! Hahaha... food was well, only one word to describe it: GLORIOUS!

First, the dinner cutlery:

I had this little madness of taking photos of the cutlery. Somehow the neat arrangement & shine appeals to me! :D

Now the food:

This is just one table of food. There were THREE tables nicely spreaded with FOOD! Oh food, glorious food!

- Halal food for dinner: Rice, glass noodles, veggie, mushrooms, & loads of sushi & sashimi!!

- Soba, cold noodles on clear miso soup

Ok, I know this plate is filled to the brim with everything on it. Basically, there're sausages, tempura, dumplings, meat of all sorts, sushi, rice, & veggie! Oh, superbly delicious! I was thinking of heading for second round, but after this full plate of food, & another plate of fruits & dessert, I could hardly move, whatmore eat somemore! :D

- Non-halal dinner.

- Dessert: (clockwise) watermelon, strawberry, orange tart, pineapple tart, creampuff, kiwi tart, chocolate cake, apple, grape, & walnut pie. *mouth waters*

Here are some pics of the people:

This was basically all that happened in the Championship Dinner. There are loads of other photos, but I'll not load it up here ;) Stay tuned; coming up, day 4 in Korea (there are 11 days!)
