Meals with Mark: Hot and Cold

No, this isn't a Katy Perry song post.

It's about this Japanese restaurant that Mark and I saw outside the Seogwipo Maeil Ollie market.

The Japanese restaurant was called "Gold Finger" and they serve different types of sushi and maki. But what caught our eye was the cold noodles - a go-to order whenever we're in Japan. 


What made their version interesting was the broth. In Japan, the broth is usually warm, or room temperature. Here, it's cold. And not just cold, it had ice in the broth!

It was odd at first, but it turned out to be really good! And the sides and accompaniments also made this meal a joy to eat.

Eating something cool has never been this hot.
