My birthday morning started out perfect. I woke up to Bobby by my side singing me happy birthday, and even got to sleep in more while he went to the gym. Then, since I had the apartment to myself, I prepared chips and spicy salsa with chocolate milk (my guilty pleasures) and watched the latest episode of Grey's Anatomy.
A little while later, I got a Facetime call from Bobby's parents and one of my best friends from back home. It was a wonderful surprise. Once Bobby got home, we got ready to meet up with some friends to head to dinner and drinks. We decided to check out a new Brazilian BBQ buffet in Haeundae called Mercado.
It was a fabulous restaurant. We got all different kinds of quality beef and chicken, which is all hard to come by at a reasonable price in Korea. The servers went back and forth from the rotisserie-esque oven pit (I clearly have no idea what its called) to give us 8 different types of meat. There was a buffet full of fruits, vegetables and side dishes. We all ate plenty of food, but not so much that we regretted it or wanted to go to bed. Afterward, we headed to a brewery in Seomyeon called Who? to drink micro-brewed hefeweizen (also hard to come by in Korea). It was a low key day with some good friends and the love of my life. It was the perfect 24th birthday.
What would you call this?
I tried chicken hearts for the first time...
I wish I could have spent my birthday with all my friends and family back home, but it turned out to be a wonderful day here in Korea. CHEERS from the other side of the world.
