Beef on a leaf...and some silk worms

I went out to eat again the other night...and of course in sticking with my motto of trying everything once...took a few bites of some not so tasty items.  We went out to eat at the place below to have beef on a leaf!  Well, we ordered pork actually.  After they put about 15 "side" dishes on the table they brought out a huge pork platter and our rice.  We had to cut the pork with scissors, since Koreans don't really use knives.  For the most part it was delicious...well....
Our spread above...note silk worms on the left and scissors to cut the meat.
Also, sitting on the floor!

Making pork on a leaf 
About to eat a silk worm...yes, it looks just like a beetle

And examining it some more...

Success....needless to say it was disgusting.

Above...putting some jellyfish on my lettuce roll. 
And below...stuffing the whole thing in my mouth because it wasn't so tasty either.




The restaurant at which we dined.  That's "Restaurant" in Hangul.  Kidding!

And topping of the evening with a beautiful sunset over the rice paddies


My friend Ellie!
Up next....so maybe beef on a leaf topped with jellyfish and silk worms wasn't enough...but waffles and ice cream sure are!!!!!!
