Bibim To Go
2175 Wyandotte St. W. N9B 1K2 Windsor, ON, Canada

Margaret Atkinson beat me to "mashisoyo" (which means "delicious" or literally "it has flavour"). How's about some etiquette trivia? In Korea, it's often considered rude or careless to hand items with one hand. If the item is too small for two hands, you'll often notice the person touching their elbow or wrist as a symbolic gesture of two-handiness. It can look somewhat like the start of the Italian gesture which has the absolutely opposite meaning.

Top 3 New Year's Resolutions: 1 - lose weight, 2 - get organized 3 - get healthy. Bibim To Go can help with two of those! Filled with wholesome ingredients like vegetables, rice and eggs, Mrs. Noh's bibimbap will keep you satisfied. Seh heh bohk mahni bah de say yo. (Lots of good luck in the new year!)

Did you use the phrase from last week? Great! For this week: Goh Mahp Seup Ni Dah = "Thank you". Try it out on Mrs. Noh behind the counter. Does she look tired to you? She's working super hard lately and a nice "thank you" would really make her day!

Phrase of the week: Ahn young ha sae yo. The polite way to say "hello" in Korean. Literally, it translates into something like "You're not ill, right?" Which I suppose could also be translated more figuratively into "How are you?" but in a much, much weirder way.
