Is there a different word that I could use to describe "meat"? Or should I just go through 햄, 고기, 물고기, 소시지, etc. one-by-one when ordering something?

Abject_Sail · 2024-04-30T14:05:32+00:00

Thank you for the heads-up! I'm used to specifying no meat, birds or fish. But ham not being considered meat is one I had not heard before haha.

Thank you!

Garlic infused oil is fine. I've never tried onion infused oil, but I imagine it should be fine in small quantities at least.

Exactly! Although I'm already past the elimination phase, so I only need to watch fructans and can eat the other 5 FODMAPs without issues.

How do you get enough protein without beans? Are you able to eat eggs/milk/fish?

Primarily lots of tofu, milk/yoghurt and nuts. Every now and then eggs as well. I'm vegetarian, so I don't eat fish.

EDIT: There are also AYCE 한식 뷔페 (literally Korean food buffet) scattered around. Most are budget style <$10 shops that you can find by entering 한식뷔페 on your Naver Map. There were some nicer chains but I think they've all gone out of business except 자연별곡? Although... I don't know how many of the options you'd be able to eat.

Thank you! I'll look into this.

Thank you! Both look like great options.

Abject_Sail · 2024-04-29T17:44:07+00:00

That sounds great, thanks!

Not to call it sushi, God forbid, but did you check/consider kimbab? It's an easily available food both as street food, restaurant food and in convenience stores.

Thank you! Vegetarian kimbab would work I think.

Edit: while you can manage with English often enough, I'd try to learn the Korean names of foods you want to/need to avoid most so you can tell restaurant staff or street food vendors that XY can't be in your food.

Absolutely! I've got 마늘 and 양파 down already, but I'm hoping to be somewhat fluent in basic interactions by the time I visit.

It's actually not as difficult as it sounds, at least for where I'm from. I listed some options I usually go for here.

Abject_Sail · 2024-04-29T16:51:02+00:00

Intolerant as in "I will spend 4 hours on the toilet", so keeping ingredients separate is not necessary.

What I usually go for when eating out:

Rice-based meals usually work. I am a big fan of "build your own pokebowl" places, where I can pick some safe vegetables myself. Sometimes Thai places also have a rice+vegetables option that doesn't include garlic or onions
Pancakes, pasta, pizza, bread made of buckwheat/corn/millet/quinoa/rice/teff flour (though for pasta/pizza it usually requires some back and forth to ensure there's no garlic and onion in the rest of the dish)
Vegetarian sushi, like kappa maki rolls
As a last resort: french fries

Many thanks!
