    That first noodle dish is a product of a tv show where celebrities create dishes and compete to see whose dish gets to be sold at the convenience store. It's called Fun-staurant

    Hey Mike~Just wanted to let you know that Samyang is the brand that makes the noodles, but they actually make other ramyuns outside of the spicy noodles. The spicy noodles that they keep releasing new flavors of are actually called Buldak Bokgeummyun, which in literal translation means Fire Chicken Pan Fried Noodles, but Koreans call it Buldak for short. Also, the kimchi jjigae noodles were actually released in collaboration with a pretty famous pork Korean bbq restaurant in Seoul called Geumdwaeji Sikdang (Gold Pig), so you should check the place out next time you’re in Korea!

      I actually do that at home sometimes. Butter bread, lightly dust with cinnamon sugar, and pan fry. Then top a slice with your favorite ice cream, and maybe some fruit or other toppings. It's good obviously, but I cut it into 3 or 4 pieces because it doesn't feel like something you should have a lot of at once🤣

    Tip for Paris: If you want to try the hot chocolate of Angelinas and the line is extremely long.

You can sit there for free and enjoy!!
