daejeon, daejeon, daejeon. . .

kelly, camille, and i decided to go away for a weekend. daejeon was boasting to host an international deli food and beer festival.

we should've known. . . that the word 'deli' doesn't hold the same meaning in korean. we were all hoping for delicious sandwiches, cheeses, mustards, pickles. . . . we were met with mostly korean food. there was a tent with chinese. . . a tent with indian. . . and a tent with schwarma. all things we already have easy access to.

we were bummed.

in then end. . . disappointed with our trip we stopped in a shopping plaza on sunday afternoon. . . where in the basement we found a massive grocery store. . . that had many of the foods we had been craving. guess we didn't need a festival.

here's my subway token from daejeon. a reuseable coin.
