| Snow in Seoul December 27 2009 |
I got out and went to Kimbap Heaven at 2am. I got bibimbap and it was too spicy!! It tastes okay, it just has way too much of the gochujang (hot pepper paste). Its suppose to be a good healthy food so I might eat it more often. I just have to tell them to not put much of the hot paste!
I'm planning a trip to NYC in March. Me and my mom are going together. I'm trying to fill our schedules with as much as possible! I think I'm going to plan a day trip to Philadelphia and Washington, DC while we are in the area. We can see New Jersey, Pennsylvania and New York. We are going to cover 3 states! I searched in cheap tickets.com and found airline plus 5 days in a hotel for $350 a person. (The hotel is in New Jersey-11 miles from NYC) Thats a great deal. I've got to book it soon. I plan to do an 8 hour city tour of NYC and visit Brooklyn Tabnernacle.
I went to bed at 6:30AM and I finally woke up at 6PM. I slept almost 12 hours! I love days where I just shut off the phone, don't set an alarm and sleep until I wake up.
It snowed again. This time it actually covered the ground. I'd say no more than an inch. There are no pretty patches around my area. Its all been trampled on. I live in a very busy area. Lots of stores and restaurants which means lots of people are walking all over the snow. Its only 20 degrees outside, but after going outside twice it wasn't that bad.
If this were SC school would have been cancelled for tomorrow, but not SK. School will go on. I think the kids have a week left of school before they go on winter vacation. They get a whole month off for winter vacation in January. Starting in January I'll be working days instead of nights. oh my.

An excellent restaurant to hang out!!
Ok...I know I am a foodie and have travelled quite a bit and been to lot many places but the one city which is always an extension of mine is undoubtedly New York. I am proud to wear my Nike NY cap and cheer my Basketball
team without fail. I have been to almost all the food joints, restaurants, pubs and bars located in Manhattan and I must say they all are pretty good considering this age of twittering and Face book wherein if you fail once your
name pops up on all the social networking websites with negative comments. This is a welcome change becoz ultimately we the customers become the king as shoddy service or bad quality food can easily land the owners into
trouble.
But the one place which has succeeded in amazing me is the newly refurbished Restaurant named Point Break. Formerly named as Nation Restaurant & Bar, Point Break is a new Surf Bar located in the heart of mid-town
Manhattan. Now I remember sometime back I had been to this place when it had the old look and feel and I thought ok..seems to be an average place..what's the big deal? But even during my last visit when it was still in its old
shape it served me excellent food and the service was razor sharp. So last Saturday when one of my friend threw a party and told me the venue to be a swanky new outlet which he was speaking so highly about I thought ok..let's
try this one too. When he told me about the address I wasn't sure it was the same place but when I reached there the whole look and feel from Outside was changed and once I entered in, the earlier known Nation was truly
looking like a break from the past and hats off this guy, I don't remember the name of the owner, but he has rightly renamed it as Point Break!! It appeals to the newer generation guys like me. We had a great time there. The
menu featured old classics and new additions. I loved the wheel o' shots which made me crazy!! I had the fish tacos which was delicious..yummeee and it has got plenty of room for parties, the DJ that they had was great,
excellent sound system as well and the drinks were strong and I had a look at the menu and thought the prices were pretty good.
Guys on top of it the next day when I searched this place on the internet, this restaurant has a Face book page too wherein they post photos and updates of recent happenings/parties and upcoming events/parties/offers too.
They tweet also which is really nice thinking by the owner.
Anyways not wanting to sound like a paid blogger I would say as a foodie this restaurant is a nice one and I would not hesitate to give my recommendation for it to my guests coming in from out of town. Go and try once and do
not hesitate to leave a comment once you are there. I know I am only going to get thumbs up from you all!!!
Ciao…
John Smith, NYC
