This drama made me fall in love with my screen.
Isn’t it cutie?
Plot, what plot? There is no debate anyway: I take both men. Wait, three men… The lady here doesn’t know what she wants. I watched this gorgeous show only for the pretty. And it has A LOT of pretty. This drama is like a food+design+fashion+eyecandy magazine all wrapped in one thing. What? You don’t match your clothes with your curtains, your meal AND the flowers on the table? Pfftt. Loser. I swear i saw a Fashion King drama airing somewhere which was supposed to provide all this. Plus a story. Sorry folks, i can’t remember exactly… I’m on this van now.
That’s all for today! Next post soon!

I’m here, in this kitchen all the way! I love food!
.
I watched Dae Jang Geum (Jewel in the Palace) on tv, It was my very first k drama. I started to be more attentive with food, paying more attention to the preparation of food.
Backer Kim Tag… in my country we eat braid, so I now know how to really make good bread
Pasta – I love that kitchen, I learned a lot about pasta from a korean drama, funny, isn’t it?
Fermentation family was beautiful, i skipped all the moments with villains, so it remained just food and love <3
FOTG – beautiful food plates, good skills, good looking MEN, and the rest is something … not important. They dragged the plot for 32 episodes (instead of 24 maximum). I think it will be my last SYR drama (she became the secong Han Ga In for me). And there was Chef Edward Kwon.
I’m scared to watch this. When I was watching Flower Boy Ramen Shop I ate more ramen than I have since college. I’m just too impressionable when it comes to the food porn. Your pictures are making me hungry!
Food! I shouldn’t have looked at that.
I shouldn’t have watched (again)your “Tae-mu” aniGif either, but i did. We are weak creatures…
someone transport me to Korea like NOW
There is one difference between Fermentation Family and Feast of the Gods. The former made me curious and want to try some kimchi they made. And i didn’t want to try anything shown on FOTG. I felt they made food not for eating but to show of the skills, knowledge of tradition and whatnot.
I eat everything: Family food and food from a 4 stars restaurant. But for the latter i may have to wash the dishes a few years if i have to pay…
Hehe. It’s not that I regret having eaten some delicious coquilles Saint-Jacques in a fancy restaurant (in France, btw). It’s not that anybody had to drag me there and made me eat all those by force. But no matter how interesting dishes we had, they were for us. And it wasn’t meant that we are there to admire some food just because it was an old recipe. In this drama people were merely a secondary addition to food, and it’s something that irks me. So it’s not about content but about attitude.
Yeah, attitude – I was delighted when a mad herione just kicked somebody as it should be done instead of punching tht person with her fists without any effect, like a puppet who cannot move on its own.
I think the only other food drama I’ve ever watched is Smile, Donghae (which was more about the melo and less about the kimchi). FOTG really portrays food in an extremely beautiful way.
And….you’re right. Who on earth does the girl want? Not even I as the viewer, knows.
I love food dramas as much as i love food in real life. *Can’t be measured*. I watch all of them and if they do the job well, i’m a happy camper. Fermentation Family was beautiful. We have a saying in France: To be happy, let’s live hidden. FF was like that: The shy little brother full of love. FOTG is more “Let’s conquer the world!”. I have always been curious about Dae Jang Geum (Jewel in the Palace) but it’s a long one and sageuks are not my cup of tea. Recently i started Immortal Classic but it was cheap in every department so i dropped it (glad Channel A stopped doing dramas because really, what they tried to feed us was unpalatable-pun intended.)
Food porntastic!!
Korean cuisine is extremely yummy, at least on my screen. I want to try it but in a good place: A lot of tourist traps in Paris.
