Jazz and Cocktails

So Saturday we headed to Seoul on the sub. Betch, Gordon et moi headed to Yongsan electronic market and then we met up with Jackshi and Cara Bara for a bite to eat at some restaurant we'd heard was pretty good. Cara ordered a portion of hommous and some pitta, Jackie some dips and Lentil soup, me and Betch opted for the Shawerma sandwich (apparently I cant say this right) and Gordon the Falafel. We waited for ages not really talking cause we were all so hungry. It finally got there and we all must have looked really funny to onlookers as we looked at the crappy portion sizes in laughter. I actually thought it was joke. Tasted wicked though but wont be going back to Abu Babbas or Abu Shabbas or whatever it was called.So Starbucks it was for quick lattes and coffees in the bid to fill our empty stomachs and then we all headed off in different directions. Me and Betch went hunting for the huge musical market walking around in circles to find that it was actually right under our noses the whole time. The market was an eye opener and Betch picked up a harmonica and some shakers for the talented, creative streak in her and we then headed off to the Jazz Club in Hyehwa with Mipa. Im honestly not a huge Jazz fan but the geezers that were playing were amazing and Id definately put my money on it that they were classically trained. The female vocalist was amazing and there was a really talented violinist, an amazing sax player, a cello player and a dude (thats so betchs word :) ) on the keyboard. It sounded so good that the hair on my whole body stood on end and its been a while that music's done that to me I can tell you. The instruments all sounded so amazing together and I tried to imagine what it would sound like without one of the instruments and it was just impossible.They all seemed to work together so well. The place was really quite unpretentious, candle lit, pretty romantic (!) and served a good pasta and good, strong black russian ! At last..a good meal !

Will definately be going there again. Didnt think I was a Jazz kinda gal but guess I was wrong. Am learning even more about myself...:)
