I did some browsing on the Coupang Eats app today again. I think it was looking for some ramen or some Katsu, but whatever I was looking for, I found some very yummy food.

Location : 히노아지 둔산점 (Hinoaji, Dunsan Branch)

Menu Item : 돈코츠라멘정식 (Tonkotsu ramen meal set) + 웰치스 포도 캔 (Can of Welch's Grape)

Total Cost : ₩12,500 + ₩1,500 + ₩5,000 (delivery)

Thoughts : The welch's tasted exactly like I remember grape Tylenol tasting. The ramen though... I could tell it was 15/10 immediately after opening the lid. The broth had such rich flavor and not too salty either. It had depth and mmmmmm... so very, very good! The Katsu was also so tender and crispy. The crunchy yellow things were ok too. Overall best food so far.

It was hard for anything to follow up that ramen... So, for supper I decided on some pad Thai. I found a place and ordered some shrimp pad Thai and to meet the minimum order requirement, I ordered some hard boiled eggs and a Thai Milk Tea drink too. The delivery took some time, and then it sat in the hallway for a few minutes too.

Location : 잇마이타이 어은점 (Itmai Thai, Eoeun Branch)

Menu Item : 팟타이 - 새우 (Pad Thai - Shrimp) + 태국밀크티 (Thai Milk Tea) + 카이룩커이 (not sure what it translates to, but it's the eggs pictured above)

Total Cost : ₩8,900 + ₩3,000 + ₩4,500 + ₩5,500 (delivery)

Thoughts : It was tasty, but I think the eggs were a little old and the coating on the outside was a little soggy. The smell of the Pad Thai was almost overwhemingly of fish. I guess that means the shrimp were fresh? The Pad Thai was all eaten and the eggs were saved for breakfast. Also, that Thai Tea was delicious and appeared to be sold in North America.
