seoul food for people who love to eat
When the weather is damp and drear (always in this neck of the woods) people like to head to that most venerable of Stumptown institutions, Voodoo Doughnut. Since I wasn’t headed downtown I headed to their second location, Voodoo Doughnut Too for a little of that voodoo that they do.
It’s not every place that can get away with making the kinds of doughnuts that these guys do. Favorites include a maple bacon doughnut (just think of it as all your breakfast rolled into one delicious doughnut) and the kind I got today.
This raised doughnut is filled with oozy, gooey jelly, covered in chocolate, and stabbed with a couple of pretzels. Just pretend that it’s somebody you don’t care for much. Ex-boyfriends, former employers, annoying roommates . . .

I also brought home a butterfingered (devil’s food, vanilla frosting, and crumbled butterfinger candy) for my family members. I swear, I was even going to let them eat it, but I was afraid it would go stale ^^;;; . . .
Voodoo Doughnut is pretty cool. After all, it’s not every doughnut shop that you can get married in . . .

Gomushin Girl is being kind enough to keep a food diary of her trip to America, as was explained in her first entry. We thought it would be interesting for our Korean readers to get an example of how Americans eat.
