Giveaway! Tickets to K-Pop Concert at K-CON

Any Kpop fans out there? If you are, you're in luck! I'm giving away two tickets to the K-Pop Concert during this weekend's K-CON. K-CON? Yes, it's a convention of "all things Hallyu" including K-pop, K-drama stars, Korean cooking demos, even a workshop teaching you how to play Korean drinking games! (see full program). As you might know, I watch a lot of J and K-dramas and even made a list of the food-related dramas!
This concert is going to be held on Saturday, 7-9:30 pm and features K-pop stars and bands including B1A4, IU (I know her from watching Dream High and You're the Best Lee Soon Shin), G-Dragon, Teen Top, and Vixx. The event will be at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.

Bibigo Celebrates Hwangap Tradition With Prix-Fixe Deal

Hwangap (or hwangab) is a 60th birthday celebration in Korea. Why 60? Because it apparently signifies accomplishing a "big circle" and coincides with the lunar calendar's 60 year cycle. In Korea, the 60th birthday celebration is usually thrown by the children of the one turning 60. Well, Bibigo's parent company, CJ Foods, just turned 60 so the "child", Bibigo, is throwing the celebration! I thought that was kind of cute.

Bibigo is celebrating by offering a three course prix fixe menu (the first two courses include two dishes each, though) for $45 per two people, which also includes a soju tasting. The menu will be available until Saturday, November 30th.

The first course includes two spicy pork steamed buns and a plate of brussels sprouts.
The steamed buns contain spicy pork, pickled radish and cucumber, lettuce, hoisin teriyaki on Chinese bao.

With this item I usually worry about the buns themselves being too dense or dry but the ones here were nice and fluffy.
The brussels sprouts are served with zucchini, cloves of garlic, zucchini, chili pepper and dried prunes.

Of course, the main course has to have Hot stone bibimbap (your choice of protein and type of rice)
