Korean food culture

The culinary culture of Korea is quite picky, they have the saying "The best of the five blessings", which means that eating is the biggest blessing of the five blessings. That is why their meals are very rich. Rice, kimchi, black sauce, chili sauce, pickled vegetables, spinach and black soy sauce soup are common dishes in the daily meals of Korean people. Along with seafood, beef, chicken or pork is also an indispensable part of their meals.


Koreans often sit on the floor to eat. They rarely sit on chairs. Therefore, Korean restaurants often prepare different types of dining tables and chairs to serve the diverse needs of diners. Koreans eat rice with a spoon and use chopsticks to eat noodles or vegetables. They also eat with separate bowls and chopsticks. Besides dishes, Soju often appears on Korean rice trays. Koreans love to share food with others, pouring and drinking also show mutual respect in their eating culture.
