Join us this fall for three magical evenings of Korean culture. These events are accessible to everyone: the young and old, those brand new to Korean culture, die-hard kdrama & kpop fans, Koreans and non-Koreans alike! Kids are welcome too!

Feel free to stay for the whole two hours between 5:30 – 7:30pm, or simply drop in when you can during that time!

For October 5th, we will learn how to:

• write our names in Korean
• learn to cook Tteokbokki
• learn to make Kimbap
• learn and practice ordering food in Korean

What is Tteokbokki?

Tteokbokki (떡볶이) is a popular Korean dish made with cylindrical rice cakes (tteok) cooked in a spicy and sweet chili sauce. It often includes ingredients like fish cakes, boiled eggs, and scallions. Tteokbokki is a beloved street food in Korea and is known for its spicy and amazingly chewy texture, nom nom nom!

What is Kimbap?

Kimbap (김밥) is a popular Korean dish that consists of rolls of rice and various ingredients wrapped in sheets of dried seaweed (nori). The rice is seasoned with salt and sesame oil, and then it’s typically filled with a variety of ingredients such as vegetables like cucumber, carrot, and spinach, as well as proteins like cooked and seasoned beef, ham, or egg strips. Kimbap is often served in bite-sized pieces and makes for a convenient and portable snack or light meal. It’s similar in concept to sushi but with distinct Korean flavours and ingredients.

For the other nights we will be doing various activities TBA (to be announced) including:
