    Happy Anniversary! I don’t think I’d ever heard the term “niblings,” but I distinctively love it. Hope your celebrations are wonderful.

    I love the word niblings. May I use it…hope you had a great anniversary. What type of Korean food do you enjoy. I am in korea at this time and love to find new things.

      My favorite is when I can talk someone into using pork bulgogi in dol sot bibimbap. A-mazing. I’m also obsessed with kimbap…so delicious. Jarom says try the street food, especially something called a potato tornado?
