Lunch in Itaewon

Today we spent the afternoon in Itaewon, where the US Army headquarters is located. The area is considered the "multicultural" part of Seoul, and indeed, there were people from all over the world in the area. We stopped in an "international" food store that had mostly South Asian and Arab spices and goods. After going to a book store and walking around we decided to get some Thai food for lunch (beef fried rice and yellow curry chicken pics below). We decided to walk to the electronics market in nearby Yongsan and followed the perimeter of the Army Base. It took about 45 minutes to get around the base. It's huge and heavily guarded and has 3 layers of barbed wire above the 12 foot high brick walls. Along the way we found the Korean National Museum, which we are looking forward to going back to.
