The best restaurant dishes you can meet while traveling in Korea
9. Moroccan Cuisine.
As a result of the large production of Mediterranean fruits, vegetables, and tropical plants in Morocco, these food crops constitute a big part of the ingredients used in Moroccan cuisine. Regular meats serve as another base for the cuisine, including chicken, beef, goat meat, mutton, lamb, and seafood (no pork due to religious dietary prohibitions). The cuisine also has classic flavors, including lemon pickle, preserved butter, olive oil, argan oil, and dried fruits. Spices and flavorings are also used extensively in Moroccan cookery.
The most popular dish in Moroccan cuisine internationally is couscous—this can be described as small, pallet-sized “pasta” made from semolina flour, traditionally served with a stew spooned on top. Other famous dishes from Morocco include pastille, rfissa, and a tajine. Bread (or khubz), soups, salads, and fruity desserts are big Moroccan meals. Moroccans also take tea drinking so seriously that the preparation of good Maghrebi mint tea is basically an art form amongst them.
For its highly “homemade” qualities, Moroccan cuisine is best when enjoyed with family and friends, relished for its exotic flavors of spices, herbs, and fragrances.
10. Korean Cuisine.
부산맛집 Korean cuisine is exceptional. Known for their spicy flavors and vast use of taste-enhancing seasonings, Korean dishes are usually flavored with soy sauce, red pepper, green onion, bean paste, garlic, ginger, sesame, mustard, vinegar, and wine. While still connected to the Asian mainland, the Korean peninsula is surrounded by water on three sides. This geographical environment underwrites the uniqueness of Korean cuisine because it has made fishing a dominant industry and source of food for the people. Besides seafood, vegetables and livestock are also key sources of the raw ingredients used in Korean cooking.
A popular Korean dish using kimchi
One of the most popular Korean dishes in the world is kimchi. The preparation involves pickling and fermentation vegetables, usually cabbage, white radish, and sometimes cucumbers, then seasoning them with red peppers and garlic. Other popular Korean dishes that are kimchi-based include kimchi stew and kimchi fried rice.
Noodles (myeon) is also another staple Korean dish, the popular varieties including jajangmyeon and ramyeon (instant noodles). Like American barbeque, Korean bulgogi is usually made from thin, marinated slices of beef, pork, sometimes chicken, and other more exotic meats like cow tongue. If you visit a Korean barbecue restaurant, your table will have a grill installed in the middle where your barbecue will be cooked and served in your presence, or you can even opt to man the grill yourself! The barbecue dish is usually eaten with a sweet and/or sour sauce or a vegetable wrap with other components like rice and ssamjang.
Other popular Korean dishes include hoe (similar to sushi), bibimbap, tteokbokki, samgyeopsal, gimbap, tteokguk (used to be strictly eaten on the first day of the Korean New Year to signify good luck and growth), and galbi (Korean ribs). There is soju—the best known alcoholic beverage in South Korea. Korean food has become increasingly popular in many other countries. There are already many Korean restaurants in countries like America, China, Japan, and the rest of the world. For example, Bonchon Chicken is an international restaurant franchise with a predominantly Korean menu and several locations worldwide.
