I finished Michael Chabon's The Yiddish Policemen's Union recently and he had more than one great scene with his main character eating semi-bad kosher food in a Yiddish cafeteria -- with the exception of the noodle kugel which is, of course, legendary in the fictional Jewish settlement of Sitka, Alaska. Of course the MC is a divorced, alcoholic, depressed loner, which made the cafeteria dining all the more sad. But I agree with you -- descriptions of food preparation and enjoyment (or not) are a great way to enhance a story.

Here, kalbi is fast food. I can go down to the school cafateria, to the Yummy Korean BBQ chain, and get kalbi, 4 vegies, and two scoops of rice for $7.50. Of course, I am sure that the fast food version of kalbi isn't quite the same as the $25 version like a McDonald's hamburger bares little resemblance to a real one.<br><br>By the way, every grocery store here sells bottles of kalbi sauce. If you would like me to ship one your way to try, just yell. I've never tried any as we just got a little grill a couple months ago.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4595491177347226789.post-58378882171543869332007-09-10T15:54:00.000-04:002007-09-10T15:54:00.000-04:00I knew I liked you.

It definitely has an importance. <br><br>Paca - we have the bottled sauce but I didn't like the one I tried. It's much easier to buy it already marinated. I'm lazy that way, but this recipe is good when you have time to do it the right way. <br><br>You all are welcome to Korean barbecue if ever you come down my way!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4595491177347226789.post-40928228191389228182007-09-11T13:38:00.000-04:002007-09-11T13:38:00.000-04:00I am SO hungry now!

My family and I have been eating short ribs prepared this way for about fifteen years. A family tradition of ours was to put a metal bowl in the middle of the table where we'd toss the bones in after we'd finished. KLINK! KLINK!! The louder, the better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
