Windroad & Windflower Guesthouse

Windroad & Windflower Guesthouse

Rugged, old, loud place? Just next to SungKyunKwan University (my tounge twisted to pronounce this) and the Ediya coffee lot that I want to test. Hmm..but it's dirt cheap..dormitory bed for 13,000 won/night and single bed for 28,000 won/night. Have been searching high and lows for reviews, most of them commented that this place rocks! Not the quality though..cause what you pay is what you get, but the manager has a friend who hosts a WWOOF Farm. Ding..ding..I should befriend this manager shouldn't I? Anyway, right after a few days in Seoul, I'm off to WWOOFing..

I will think about it..and will put my worthy comment once I stayed there. But all in all from the journal this place seems happening. ^__^

Loving Hut, vegetarian food in Sinchon

As I browsed through happycow site for vegetarian food in Seoul, I stumbled upon this chain vegetarian restaurant Loving Hut. They have a branch in Puchong, Selangor. Wow??

All the menus are from vegetarian..hmm I will be a vegan temporarily (3 months) + seafood + fruits = seafru vegan..haha. I'm just making that up. No pun intended.

The menu shows mix of korean and western food. They only have one branch in Sinchon, Seoul though. Tried to find the review and surprisingly encouraged that even the 'cold burger' tasted yummy for this blogger - Kelly. Loving Hut website have the map shown but really... not helping at all, for me at least. Situated near Yonsei University gate, I supposed I have to take subway Line 2, Sinchon Station? Hmmm..from there, I supposed I have to ask around with my limited Korean language. God, please save me.

No!! They don't have bibimbap in this branch..arghh..heck it, I will try other food then. Hmm.. Jjajangmyun, anyone?? Hehehe..3,500 won for Large - approximately MYR10. Quite ok..
