Thank You and Welcome event with KTO!

Korea Tourism organization has started a special program for foreigners which is class K-performance supporters. So to pay thanks to 2012 batch and welcome new one , they organized a special KPOP concert at Gangnam KPOP hall on April 5. There were people from over 37 countries who attended events. The best K-supporter for 2012 was awarded to Mr. Fakhar from Pakistan. He was activity promoting korean culture and activists to foreigners through his blog. I was also part of 2013 K performance supporters batch. I like Kpop and randomly drop by at korean cultural events. There were few amazing new stars who performed on that day. I like concept of Aaria band because they tried to combine traditional and modern Korean music. Here are some Pictures related to event. I look forward to more events from KTO!   Love for KTO! 

Korean style pizza vs. New York Style Pizza

While explaining to foreigners, Koreans declare Pajeon/파전 as similar to pizza ! But in fact this is totally different! Korean style pizza or 파전 is made up of onion, octopus, shrimp, and egg. They are mixed together and fried in oil. Usually restaurants serve it with Makgoli ( Korean rice wine). On the other hand, New York still is filled up with topping. It's mega sized and not sweet ;) the best place to taste it if you visit Brick Oven Pizza in Gangnam! Pajeon New York Styled Pizza at Gangnam!

Big 3 at building 63 ( special thanks to KEB Bank)

Building 63 or 육삼 빌딩 or Hawha building is tallest building in Seoul. It provides a spectacular view of city around Han river. It has got everything in one place. A wax museum , an aquarium , IMAX theater, Sky Art etc. Korea Exchange Bank , by quite some distance, number one global organization/bank in Korea offered a Man won surprise to its customer. Normally it costs 33 thousand korean won for BIG 3 ( any 3 options) in building 63. Here are some pictures from wax museum , aquarium and sky art.

Trendy restaurants in Seoul!

Seoul is full of trendy and western/European style restaurants. You can have pasta , pizza , curry , naan etc ;) or French style bread. I would like to introduce couple of them : Jenny's Cafe in between Hapjeong station and sangsu station line 6. It is Italian style pasta and pizza restaurants and some of dishes use wine as ingredients Mad for Garlic. It has franchises all over Korea. Beautifully decorated from inside. I will recommend to try their snow garlic pizza :) Gangnam station exit 12 branch is not crowded on Sundays ! Try your luck there
