Or they spell Jjajangmyeon in Korean. This is a popular Korean noodle dish. It has a thick, savory and slightly sweet sauce made from roasted black bean paste. The sauce is usually mixed with diced pork, onions, and sometimes vegetables like zucchini or potatoes, giving it a rich and hearty flavor. I think I always see this in all K-dramas that I watched. It is nice to taste other country's dishes but I'm sure it will taste better if one can taste dishes in the county of origin itself. My SIL bought two orders and gave me one for dinner. What will be your breakfast/lunch/dinner?

I ate two beef burritos with salsa on them for breakfast a little while ago. I was afraid that was the dish with squid ink noodles on it. YUCKY! I'm glad it's not!

You made me all hungry! I think you have also influenced me to pick Korean food the next time someone asks where we should go out to eat. It’s 5:45am here, and my breakfast was a drinkable strawberry protein yogurt. I hope it lasts me longer than I think it will.

I've never had the opportunity to try authentic Korean food but that certainly sounds really good.From your description I do like everything in it. Tonight will probably be roasted chicken with potatoes and vegetables. Nothing fancy

@rakski I buy rotisserie chicken at Sams Club and they are big, juicy and fairly inexpensive. Big enough for more than one meal, saves on having to cook and even the dog participates in some "real: chicken.

I have only had Korean food once and liked it. Yours looks delicious. Tonight we will have leftover corned beef sandwiches with potato puffs and a small salad.

Beef and black bean sauce is always on the menu here in Chinese restaurants but I'm not keen on the taste of black bean.
