STOP THE PRESSES!
Korean Food Served in Pyongyang Restaurants! (thanks to Best of the Web for the link):
Mmmmm .... green gram pancake and mullet soup!
Pyongyang, November 18 (KCNA) -- Restaurant serving Korean food as appeared in each district of Pyongyang, the capital of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. Kim Ki Myong, a section chief of the Public Catering Management Department of the Pyongyang City People's Committee, told KCNA that the department, after consultation with officials concerned, standardized the cooking methods of traditional dishes inherent in the Pyongyang area and chose kinds of folk dishes for each restaurant according to its actual condition.I suppose the P'yongyang McDonalds is rather worried by this development.
The Pothonggang Restaurant on the picturesque bank of the River Pothong serves boiled rice and soup, rice-cake, noodle and pancake, Tangogi soup, green gram pancake and mullet soup famous in Pyongyang.
It is crowded with many people including old men and women and children.
Some people come to the restaurant with their families and enjoy the Korean food.
Mmmmm .... green gram pancake and mullet soup!
