I like my school for a lot of reasons. One of them is the great school lunches that I get to eat. Come with me on a week's tour of lunch!

| Self-service woohoo! (dangerous) |
Monday
Top left: 시금치 Boiled spinach with salt and sesame oil
Top middle: 깍두기 Radish kimchi, quite sour and crunchy!
Top left: 닭갈비 Marinated chicken with vegetables and chewy rice cakes
Bottom left: 보리밥 Barley rice
Bottom right: 부대찌개 Budae jjigae or army soup. People aren't 100% certain how it came about, but the prevailing idea is that American soldiers gave SPAM, hot dogs and macaroni to Korean civilians during the Korean war, who then mixed it with Kimchi, beansprouts and spices to make a soup. This is a school version, however and isn't spicy.
Tuesday
Top left: 열무된장무침 Soybean paste marinated radish leaves
Top middle: 포기김치 Cabbage Kimchi (fermented cabbage)
Top right: 잡채 Glass noodles with vegetables and oil.
Bottom left: 율무밥 Plain white rice
Bottom right: 쇠고기낙지전골 Beef and squid soup (I didn't put any squid in mine, however)
Wednesday
Top left: 오이지무침 Pickled cucumber. It was a little bit sweet.
Top middle: 파인애플 Pineapple
Top right: 깍두기 Radish kimchi
Bottom left: 치킨텐더/머스터드소스 Chicken tender with honey mustard sauce. Quite a treat because at first I thought it might have been battered octopus. The batter had these crispy little things on the outside too. Delish!
Bottom right: White rice with beef and vegetable curry!
Thursday
Top left: 깍두기 That radish kimchi from Monday and Wednesday.
Top middle: 게살크림납작파스타 Brocolli and unidentified pink thing (google says crab) cream pasta.
Top right: 도라지오이생채 Cucumber and bellflower root (Literally just found this out!)
Bottom left: 찰흑미밥 Erm.... purple rice.
Bottom right: 돈육김치찌개 Tofu, kimchi and pork casserole.
Friday
Top left: 도토리목무침 Acorn jelly with lettuce, carrot and red chilli pepper. Yum!
Top middle: 포기김치
Top right: 등심탕수육 Sweet and sour pork
Bottom left: 서리태밥 Rice with beans
Bottom right: 콩가루배추국 Cabbage and beansprout soup
On the side: 뿌요파티 Apple, white grape, pumpkin, lettuce, orange, celery, brocolli and spinach juice. Surprisingly tasty!
...and for afters
a little treat from one of my co-workers.
