Cooking at Daegu-Gyeongbuk English Village

We were lucky enough to have an in with one of Brandon's coworkers who asked if we wanted to take a cooking class tour. Some of the tours that we have taken are sponsored and are free and so we decided to go on this one because it didn't cost us a thing and we may actually learn something. It was fairly close to our area and got home pretty early. So off we went yesterday morning. We were at an English village which is pretty much a week camp for Korean children to go and experience English was of life the best they can here in Korea. Quite a lot of the staff is from Colorado and some in Canada. They have little simulations for the kids where they board a stationary plane and when they get off. They are in some new place. It is a beautiful campus and they treating us well. We were taken on a short tour of the campus before our class started. Wow! Looks expensive and probably is for families. Then they took us up to a class where we had an instructor with assistants. Our assistant was the instructor's husband who had never cooked before. They let the boys become involved and it was fun for everyone. We made Bulgogi and Pah-Jeon (sea food pancake w/onions). We were told that Bulgogi is the favorite dish of the Koreans. Kind of like what Pizza is to Americans. We came home with a few new recipes and one dish that the entire family loves including Isaiah which is a bonus. I took a picture of the Bulgogi. The large white things in there are big mushrooms. They also have a great noodle in there I think is called cellophane noodles. Well,this is one recipe that I am going to have to try to make. Now all I need is a nice wok. The man in the picture is the President of the campus and wanted to get his picture taken. He kept staring at Brandon and telling him that he was very handsome and his hair was cool. That is how the people are here. This behavior is not unusual. What a fun day.
