Lunch at a Korean Cafeteria

I love potato pancakes.
The fried seaweed is fried in sugar, sesame oil, and salt. It makes a quick and easy meal if you mix it with rice (like bibimbap).

School Lunch in Korea Update

Having ju muck bahb aka rice balls for school lunch was a first for me. It was awesome and I'm sure the kids liked them.
What is ju muck bahb? "Ju muck" means "fist" in English, so we can actually call them fist rice. They are made by clumping the fried rice and seaweed into balls using your fist. Easy, right? Fist rice balls is a very literal name.
