In March 2007, Andy and I took a weekend trip to Portland, Oregon. Neither of us had ever been before and we were both pleasantly surprised by the caliber of dining there.

		<description><![CDATA[Last night I prepared one of my all-time favorite Korean dishes, dduk bok-kee. Often served in late-night bars and cafés, this dish is the Korean equivalent of an American comfort food like macaroni and cheese. In Korean, dduk generically refers to a rice cake, a satisfyingly glutinous dumpling that arrives in many shapes. Dduk bok-kee is composed of cylindrical dduk [...]]]></description>
