HAPPY BIRTHDAYs on FRI, in OCT 🎂

How’s your Friday going?
At 8 Birds, we spent our Fridays in a rather special way.
Last Friday and today, we celebrated our colleagues’ birthdays,
with cakes from @atwosomeplace_official

In Korea, you can find cafés offering whole cakes,
so celebrating special days is not cumbersome 🕯️
Happy birthday to everyone born in October 🍰
Enjoy your time in the fall! 🧡

Tuna, salmon, shrimp, eel and white fish, with a sashimi rice bowl

Blue View @ Jeju Iho Tewoo 🌊🏊

Shilla Stay Plus Iho Tewoo sits right on Iho Tewoo Beach,
about 15 minutes drive from Jeju Airport ✈️
So you can land, drop your bags,
and be looking at this within the hour 🌊
Most rooms face the sea, and the outdoor pool looks the same way 🏊
Sunset is the moment here, as the beach faces northwest 🌅

가산삼계탕 Gasan Samgyetang 🍗🍲

Koreans famously eat this boiling hot soup
on the hottest days of summer — fighting heat with heat 🔥
삼계탕 Samgyetang is a whole chicken stuffed with glutinous rice,
ginseng, garlic and jujube, simmered until it falls off the bone 🐔
The rice inside soaks up all that broth, and it’s the best part of the bowl 🍚
We had ours at 가산삼계탕 in autumn, and it warms us up just as well once the air turns cold 🍂

Two Korean comfort classics in one pot 🍜
부대육칼면 is spicy yukgaejang broth with knife-cut noodles,

₩12,000 in Gasan Digital Complex —

Bananas grow in Korea? 🍌

Only on Jeju, where it’s warm enough —
and at Sweet Monkey you walk right through the greenhouse jungle 🌴
Those purple pods are banana flowers,
and the leaves are big enough to carry over your head 😳
It’s a proper day out with kids too, swings and all 💛

Knot Workshop 매듭공방 🪢

매듭 (maedeup) is Korean decorative knotwork — each knot tied from a single cord, and symmetrical front and back 🪢
Every pattern carries a meaning too, from health to abundance, which is why they’ve hung from hanbok, fans and purses for centuries 🌸
Donglim Knot Workshop (동림매듭공방) in Bukchon has been going since 2004, and the craft has passed down three generations of the same family ✨
Their one-day class takes 20–50 minutes, so you leave wearing something you tied yourself 💜
It’s also a Seoul-designated 오래가게, one of the city’s officially recognized long-standing shops 🏮

⚪ Silver Galchi at Jeju 🚪

갈치 (galchi) is cutlassfish — long, narrow and bright silver,
and Jeju is the best place in Korea to eat it 🐟
Here it arrives whole and grilled, stretched down the entire table.
Jeju’s is called 은갈치, “silver galchi,” ⚪
caught one at a time on a hand line instead of in a net,
so the silver skin stays perfectly intact ✨
At Daemunjib (대문집) near Hyeopjae it comes with 성게미역국 —
sea urchin and seaweed soup — plus a full table of banchan 🥢

Can’t upset the kimchi master! On every trip, I love to include at least two hands-on cooking classes so everyone can learn about the local cuisine wherever we travel. If this sounds like your kind of trip, sign up for the next one! See the “travel with me” page in my bio!

Wind Turbines at Jeju 🌬️

Jeju has always been known as 삼다도:
the island of three abundances: wind, stone and women 🌬️
Black basalt walls, turbines turning out at sea, Jeju built Korea's very first offshore wind farm,
and today turbines line both the coastline and the water 💨
Under its Carbon Free Island 2030 plan,
the island aims to generate more renewable electricity than it actually uses,
and wind is doing most of the work ⚡

Pasta in Jeju - Soosunhwa 수선화식당 at Hyeopjae 🍝

Hyeopjae is famous for its beach — that impossible turquoise water with Biyangdo island just offshore 🏖️
But stay for lunch, because Soosunhwa (수선화식당) serves two things you can really only get on Jeju 🍽️
First, 보말파스타 — 보말 are small sea snails prised off the island's volcanic rocks, traditionally gathered by haenyeo free divers 🐚
Nutty, briny and gently chewy, somewhere between a clam and abalone ✨
Second, the pork cutlet, made with 흑돼지 —
Jeju's native black pig, prized for firmer, richer meat than you'll find on the mainland 🐖
