A working girl's lunch, Seoul

A typical working girl's lunch in Seoul...
kimchi jjigae (kimchi stew normally with pork pieces and tofu)
Layout on our table...with many banchans, rice served in a wide metal bowl, in case you want to create bibimbap (mixed rice with vegetables) for yourself.
Gochu-jang (chili paste) and sesame oil are on the table, though not in the pic.


Gyeran mari, Korean-style omelette. Typically served with kimchi jjigae, or as soolanju, (dishes served with alcohol)
I am not going to write where I had this, because
1. It was in a tiny alley in Jongno,a very busy office area, and my friend took me there, so I don't remember exactly where.
2. You can get this just about everywhere in Seoul.
I think it cost 6000KRW(£3)/person.
