Seoul#6 Korean BBQ & Cheonggyecheon Stream

Aaahhh..... Korean BBQ$$***** --> must try in Korea. Really good meat wrapped in fresh lettuce, dipped with korean bean paste sauce... satisfaction.......

Can find these bbq restaurants around myeongdong, namdaemun market area. Actually almost anywhere :D We ordered the 3 layer pork (samgyeopsal 삼겹살), costs W11,000 per pax. They don't serve one serving, minimum to order is 2 servings cause they come with free side dishes and lettuce. 


After the hearty meal, we went to walk along the Cheonggyecheon Stream [청계천]****. It is a unique river, as the government spend efforts into positioning it as a place for expression of art and culture. Lanterns all light up, it was so beautiful and romantic :)



There was quite a history to this stream we're standing there. Imagine its transformation from this:

Singapore#4 ClarkeQuay&RafflesHotel

Clarke Quay, it was silent in the morning and afternoon time. But here is very happening in the night time as there are many river-side restaurant, lounge and club$$$.

The guy behind us is Stamford Raffles who found this island many years ago. And...









...people build a 'Raffles Hotel' by named after the Singapore Founder.


This hotel is very exquisite. It is too sad as we can't visit this hotel even we was just outside the hotel entrance because only hotel residents are allowed to entry the hotel.
