Airplane food!

okay, check this out!! This is the meal we got on the airplane! my first taste of korean food: Bibimbap. its a very popular Korean dish... kind of like a bunch of delicious crap mixed together in a rice bowl.

i just couldnt get over how tasty it was though--especialllllyyyy for airplane food. okay, to to break it down (clockwise from upper left)...
- upper left garbage pile: so the rice was separate, it came with instructions telling you to put it into the bowl, and then a little like, toothpaste tube of garlic-chile sauce that tasted like siracha. mmmm
- deeeelishhhh fruit salad, freshly chopped watermelon, melon, and pineapple.. mmm
- coffee or tea afterwards
- korean beer! Max is probably the most Canadian-beer-esque one ive had so far (last night i did a bit of a sampler), and it was the first one i tried!
- seaweed salad-- tasty, but basically like broth and seaweed floating in it. but i love seaweed--so hey!
- my remote for my mini console/tv/"sky theatre"/EVERYTHING screen on the back of the seat in front of me. so awesome.
- bibimbap: so... its like this marinated green leafy stuff, ground meat of some kind, cabbage (marinated also), mushrooms, and possibly other stuff arranged all nicely in a little design in the bowl, and then you dump rice on top, and then put this chile-garlic paste in, and then mix it all around. yummy!
- kimchi: hahaha... i almost laughed out loud. airplane kim chi = Bick's yum yum pickles mixed with siracha and chile flakes. it tasted... interesting. but it took me a while to figure out it was yum yums, but then i laughed.
