it finally feels more like winter now that it's snowed, and we skipped

eating at samurai mama like last year, and went next door to dokebi

to warm up & celebrate our 8th wedding anniversary. :D

after debating over whether or not to get a table grill of bulgogi or shrimp,

we got a nice, brothy bowl of spicy kalbi-tang (spiciness making it more

like yookgaejang, but still really good), and nakji bokum, a spicy stir fry

of octopus (a smaller kind more like squid, not the regular ones) and

veggies over udon noodles - alongside really yummy mixed grain rice &

banchan.

unfortunately, the nakji hokum was a bit of a letdown due to the toughness

of the octopus and overly saucy spiciness, but the soup alone was a real

success. and their rice is so good.

still super satisfying and still too full.

and it did snow finally (yesterday)!!
