If you’ve been keeping up with my blog and are familiar with my eating habits, you know that I hate eating hot liquids. You may be wondering what exactly I would get at a ramen house? Luckily, even restaurants dedicated to serving hot liquids have dry food options.

I occasionally ate eel back when I still lived in Illinois, as my mom would sometimes cook it Korean-style as a side dish. But, since moving to California, I haven’t had eel.

I like having variety in my life, so usually when I go to a restaurant, I’ll order something different every time. Because I didn’t have eel for so long, that was today’s dish of choice.
