Back at @imok.smokedining by @yooyongwook - this time at the bar where the course menu is currently KRW150,000 per person, which includes its signature beef rib, pork bacon, and spicy ramen. All the menus for private room, hall table, and bar include these core dishes so you can’t go wrong with any of them (difference is +/- a few dishes with the private rooms having the most courses). Corkage KRW 50,000. — 📍Imok Smoke Dining B1, 6 Apgujeong-ro 2-gil, Gangnam-gu, Seoul 서울 강남구 압구정로2길 6 지하1층 #shanghaigirleatsSEOUL

Korean soy marinated raw crab isn’t for everyone but if it’s your type of food, check out Seobaekja (서백자) near COEX in Seoul! Everyone tends to go to Pro Soy Crab (프로간장게장) but it has gotten touristy over the years. The large size crabs were fatty and plump, delicious on its own and also tasty mixed with rice! 🦀🍚 — 📍Seobaekja Soy Sauce Marinated Crab 서백자 간장게장 2F, 542 Samsung-ro, Gangnam-gu, Seoul / 서울 강남구 삼성로 542 2층 #shanghaigirleatsSEOUL #서백자간장게장

Move over Knotted… @bebedonutshop has just become my no. 1 donut in Seoul!! These delicious twisted donuts come in a variety of flavors - the salted caramel with cubes of soft butter are my favorite, followed by the milk glaze. I went twice in two days… — 📍Bebe Donut 베베도넛 Yongsan 1F, Unit 101, 20 Hangang-daero 62na-gil, Yongsan-gu, Seoul / 서울 용산구 한강대로62나길 20 1층 101호 📍Bebe Donut 베베도넛 Ikseon 1F, 31-14 Donhwamun-ro 11na-gil, Jongno-gu, Seoul 서울 종로구 돈화문로11나길 31-14 1층 베베도넛 #베베도넛 #bebedonut #shanghaigirleatsSEOUL

I love to visit 席作 Xi Zuo in Xintiandi when I am back in Shanghai for well made Chinese food (with excellent service too)! The steamed fish with fermented black bean, scallion, ginger, and soy sauce is still the best - each piece free of bones with an even amount of garnish. The key is to take the leftover sauce and drown some rice in it. This time I also tried their famous steamed crab with glutinous rice - worth getting! *圆种糯米蒸膏蟹 steamed crab with glutinous rice *十年陈皮黑菜脯蒸本港斗鲳 steamed fish *闽南红葱油酥肉汁福鼎芋 Minnan scallion oil gravy taro *甜虾油梨燕皮盏 sweet shrimp and avocado *厦门沙茶海鲜锅 Xiamen sacha seafood pot (with youtiao) — 📍 Xi Zuo Fujian Banquet 席作·福建会馆 5F, Xintiandi Style I, 123 Xingye Lu, No 7 | 兴业路123弄7号新天地时尚购物中心Ⅰ期5楼 #席作 #席作福建会馆

I love Chinese food and the breadth and depth of the cuisine so I made sure I had it all week long during my Shanghai trip. I dined at a superb Ningbo restaurant called Yong Jiang Chun 甬江春 in Xintiandi with delicately and skillfully prepared dishes using ingredients like yellow croaker and pigeon that just don’t taste the same outside of China. Added bonus: BYO Maotai 😋. *熟醉膏蟹配冰激凌 cooked drunken crab *墨鱼鲍鱼拼盘 cuttlefish & abalone platter *纳豆蒸原条中黄鱼 steamed yellow croaker with natto *乳鸽 pigeon *沙爹脆皮鸡烤鳗鱼 satay crispy chicken & eel *带鱼馄饨 beltfish wonton *臭豆腐 stinky tofu 😜 — 📍Yong Jiang Chun 甬江春 2/F, No. 16 Xintiandi North Block, 181 Taicang Lu, Shanghai / 太仓路181弄新天地北里16号2楼 #甬江春
