Berlin

Posted on June 30, 2016 by nelsonutella

2nd leg of my solo trip – Berlin! The first leg was in Vienna. And I’m so darn thankful I know a bit of German to navigate through the city!

Satisfying my tummy one dish at a time.

Instagram

South Korea = meat overdose. #흑돼지 (black pork) and another plate of tripe/intestines. Meat cooked over a charcoal fire tastes the best (as always). Slightly pricey but I’d dare say that it’s worth it.

#jokbal or pig’s trotter, is a famous Korean dish - or a dish that goes well with alcohol 😂 The trotter is stewed for a good amount of time with various herbs, spices, and even apples! The meat itself has a good proportion of skin/fat/meat. It’s salty and sweet, and there are three sauces for you to dip in: fermented shrimp, gochujang, and ssamjang. So take your pick, or eat it as it is, and wash it down with a shot of soju. This, by far, is the best I’ve tried. #porkygoodness #mythjokbal

Started off with a bottle of banana milk (of course) in the morning, and headed off to Gangnam for some meaty goodness. Thinly sliced brisket set that came with fresh abalone, scallops, and kimchi (cooked in the fat rendered from the brisket, YES.). The underblade steak (살치살, I think.) was cooked over a charcoal fire, dipped in salt, and it’s oh so tender. We had kimchi chigae as well, which was slightly tangy because of the ripened kimchi, and so flavourful. Happy day 🐄.

First day in Myeongdong, Seoul! Lots of food - from Isaac’s toast to street tteokbokki and eomuk, and also jjajangmyeon and tangsuyuk. Not forgetting hotteoks with the traditional brown sugar stuffed inside that melts into gooey goodness when you bite into it. Boneless spicy chicken feet are a pleasure to eat, dipped into a mixture of mustard and mayo (I think).

Berg With Cheese [$14.50]. The Classic BERG patty, Lettuce, Tomato, Red Onion, Aioli & BERGS Sauce with either Cheddar, Swiss, or Blue Cheese. I chose the ‘large’ version, along with Swiss cheese. I would have loved it to be medium-rare but still it was a pretty decent burger. Sauce was slightly tangy, patty was juicy, and the fries were huge (couldn’t finish it all). Pop by Berg’s if you haven’t! Top up an additional $5.50 for fries and homemade ice lemon tea!

Rempah Ayam Goreng [$11.90]. It is fragrant - I’m guessing a blend of spices that includes lemongrass, ginger, and galangal (I might be wrong 😨), and tender inside. I usually prefer the thighs to breast meat in such dishes as it doesn’t dry out easily. I’d have love it to be a little more crispy and just a teeny bit less salty. This dish doesn’t come with rice, so an additional $1.50 will be charged for a portion of their basmati/nasi lemak rice.

Even though I’m heading to Korea next month..why not? @chibing_sg’s BBQ buffet (S$22++, only at night) gives you thick (and unlimited) slices of pork belly, unlimited refills of soy bean paste soup, steamed egg, and rice. This pork belly makes me belly happy too 🐷

Laksa [$5.50]. Ordered a medium-sized portion. Sorry other laksas, but I’m team @janggut_laksa. Broth is not overly thick, and of course you can enjoy the dish with just a spoon.

Here for the fried chicken of course. Three types: boneless, wings, mixture. We ordered half-portion wings for almost all the flavours: original ($19), yang nyeom ($22), soy sauce ($22), chili padi garlic sauce ($22). Would recommend 🌶🌶🌶 for yang nyeom. And do wings if you can as it is easier to share.
