COLD

It is sooo cold today at -3 degree celcius. Even though I've been indoor today - wearing track pants and long-sleeve sweater and socks - it is STILL icy cold. It would be worse tomorrow, as the predicted weather forecast is -7 degree celcius. We're probably staying in tomorrow too, because of the unforgiving weather. Just as well, since when our Taiwanese friends arrive on the 22th, our daily schedule will be packed like sardines!

This is our dinner for tonight. It was purchased from a chicken shop near the hostel. Underneath my outer coat, I wore 2 pullover sweaters and a thermal innerwear; and topped off the whole assemble with a skinny jeans, beanie, shawl, and arm warmers. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME I'VE BEEN TO THIS MUCH TROUBLE JUST TO BUY DINNER! And despite all the thermal precaution, I can feel my mouth practically freezing off as soon as I stepped out of the hostel building!

Anyway, this chicken is fantabulous! The chicken is crispy but not too oily, the rice cakes are springy with every bite, and the sauce is thick, sticky, and tasty! Even thought it's nowhere comparable to Kyochon's, the less steep price thoroughly compensates for it. This chicken meal costs 6000won (~SGD$7), as compared to 15000won (~SGD$17) from Kyochon. AND the best part? I ate 1/3 of it for dinner tonight and am keeping the rest for tomorrow or the day after!

Now I feel like a hibernating bear; storing up all the food indoors and hiding under blankets!
