If you ever find yourself in Vladivostok, Russia, there's still one there.
Wonderful that there are still Pyongyang restaurants open.
Very nice! Food looks great in your video.
I've been to two North Korean restaurants in Dandong, China. One of them was the "typical" restaurant that had women performers singing the "Trot-style" Pop Music during the dinner. The other restaurant was a BBQ "cook your own" style. Though that was over six years ago. I found it interesting that one of the restaurants had their kim chee rolled up into a "wad". Each person gets their own wad and peels off the kim chee and eat. Never seen it served like that before. I thought the food and entertainment on my experience were great... but I've never been to the DPRK so I have no reference to compare with. These restaurants seemed popular and did have a lot of local Chinese customers.
It was! I’m sure if I ate BBQ at the BBQ restaurant it would’ve been better. And a shame the first one wasn’t open. Also wish I’d have gone at dinner time to catch a waitress show..! Nevermind.
Good job!,👏👏👏
Thanks! 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you for the food tour, due to rapid visa whiplash; it's always good to know where someone can get some Pyongyang/northern style Korean food abroad.
Glad you enjoyed it!
There is one close to Dongdaqiao Station as well.
You should try 平壤海棠花, on Chaoyangmen near the DPRK embassy. It is supposed to be affiliated with the embassy and is frequented by North Korean diplomats (you see them arrive in their dip cars and wearing pins).
I came here during my reading of Hyeonseo Lee's book 'The Girl with Seven Names'
Very nice video. I welcome especially your personal insights in the video.
So nice of you
There are nearly ten North Korean state-run restaurants in China
Heading to Beijing in the new year. Been wanting to try the North Korean restaurants there. Where were the two that were open? My understanding was that the main ones are in Chaoyang District?
After seeing you eating so much, I now understand why you run so long distances 😂
Hahaha 😝 literally so happy I can eat what I want in general haha
It’s 11 am (before noon) and you think you should say good afternoon??
girl you can EAT lol impressed
Looool was good fuel for the run next day 🥲
What subway station is that near? Never been to that one.
you ate a lot xd
Yeah really 😂
The taste of famine. My favourite cuisine! 😋
This is not North Korea!
True... it's a north korean restaurant in china.
Hey Zoe, I'm only recently starting to watch your videos, but I realise im a bit far behind on your whole North Korean story, could you recommend where to start with your videos just to bring me up to speed 😂 interested in understanding your story 😊
Hehe no worries. It is a bit odd at first..! I actually have a recent podcast episoe where I go over all of this if you're interested - the podcast is calle Discover North Korea and it should be episode 2! You can find it here in the podcast playlist or whereever you get your podcasts! I go into detail on my story from a few years ago up to now :)
3:00 The song is called Are We Living Like in Those Days? by Pochonbo Electronic Ensemble. It's catchy.
Music in description yeah!
@@ZoeDiscovers What's your favourite musical artist/group from North Korea?
love the NK music background! From Sri Lanka !
Love Sri Lanka!!! Thank you 🤩
love your vlogs Zoe, hope you can do more in the future :o
Thank youuu!
There's one I just visited last week called 母米粥 in Beijing as well! It's not advertised as north korean run, but all of the waitresses are north korean and extremely nice. Would love to know your thoughts if you decide to go :)
wow nice, do you have the address?
@@ZoeDiscovers 朝阳门内大街 75号院佳龙酒店B座 -- sorry not quite sure what the english translation is, but considering it's chinese run with north korean waitresses, probably similar to the other ones you went to!
@@thepotatolawyer awesome thank you!
😀 Excellent Presentation, Thanks Big!! 😃
Great video. I’ll be sure to check that first one out when next in Beijing 👍
Yesss! Glad you enjoyed Peter!
Hey, I am visiting Beijing in a few weeks and I would like to visit a DPRK restaurant. What is the address for the third one? Cheers!
may I please have map location as I can't find, thanks
Thanks so much for the awesome video 🙏 I'll go to all these places when I am in Beijing next time 😀
Glad you enjoyed!
I tried to find, just wasted my time
Do NOT drink a beer glass of Jim Beam. Or 들쭉 for that matter. 🤪
Do they also sell any North Korean souvenirs? (For example some sort of gift shop?)
I think I recall them selling some chinese wine in the back of the counter but I don't think there was any Korean stuff
is 银畔 still open?
I'm not sure!
