looks great schools biscuits cookies and pies they bake everything themselves anyway like i'm saying even if you're in a really residential area like this they're still around every single corner so the top convenience stores in south korea are 711 cu gs25 and yi mart 711 let's start here oh this looks good beef noodle soup these are adorable [Music] tuna and egg salad sandwich with jam matcha strawberry sandwich this looks good too oh this looks awesome so long time yes please i've been looking for this grilled intestines shredded pizza cheese string cheese whoa i have never seen this before rose noodles from samyang cheddar cheese [Music] whoa so many different samyam flavors cheese 7-eleven select spicy noodle gonna be doing something special with this oh this looks intense let's try all right i think that might be enough drink in a bag though one of these i really didn't think um i was gonna get all this on my first trip to the 7-eleven i was just gonna stop by a bunch of convenience stores but that's the problem when you go to convenience stores in asia everything looks good and you're gonna lose a little self-control you need one more thing though see if the cu has it seriously at the 7-eleven and see you within one block of each other i just got back and there's just so much food i i definitely did not have any self-control at the 7-11 so uh i think for the next 24 hours just gonna be 7-11 food and i couldn't find this so i had to go to a gs25 and find this [ __ ] i'm going to tell you guys what i'm going to do with this this and intestines i don't know if this is going to be good i read about this somewhere we're going to try this out you'll see in a little bit but first cup of ice and juice in a bag i'm a huge fan of seven select this looks like pineapple grape orange juice a drink in a bag they have coffee as well i don't know if it tastes better or i just really like getting a drink in the bag maybe it's because when i was younger and going to school all my friends had their capri sun or high c they all came in a bag like this with a straw so jealous of that we couldn't really afford that so now as an adult i just love drinks in a bag fits perfectly in an ice cup this is so good by the way wow this pineapple grape orange drink this is just uber yummy not overly sweet either oh that's so good i highly highly highly recommend this one stuff with this i feel like the sun is shining outside i am really really excited about this beef noodle soup this reminds me of that really good beef noodle soup i had in taiwan [Music] [Music] this smells really really good now my expectations are kind of raised i'm not really a fan of noodles um that's already cooked inside the vacuum seal package those usually will come out not as al dente as the dry ones so inside little pieces of beef not as big as the giant ones you find in the taiwan instant noodles this is awesome wow i wish i had some chinese vinegar to put in here it needs a little bit of acid a little bit of sourness but wow that broth is delicious i mean really really really spicy a little nummy as well you can taste the peppercorn not a fan of the little bits of dehydrated beef but the broth is amazing you know what the noodles are not bad either man why did i not go buy some kimchi oh man did i really just go to korean 7-eleven didn't buy kimchi i'm gonna remedy that later but oh my goodness i mean huge beefy flavor the broth is so rich every slurp brings you this giant umami hit the noodles are chewy the texture is way better than i expected i mean just a slurp of dish and ship with the bra oh such a good combo that's just gonna make you feel so warm and happy inside i wish they gave us this during quarantine wouldn't complain at all eating this every single day i'd be very happy i didn't really buy any side dishes i should have bought some extra meat to put into the noodles soup gonna go take care of this right now [Music] got some kimchi spicy meat on a stick and plate of pork some kimchi would be so good in this noodle soup i know i'm spending a lot of time on this noodle soup but it really is that good [Music] tastes kind of like spam [Music] i was gone maybe for five minutes still so good even better now with the kimchi and the meat i think this is a jajangmyum rice cake combo [Music] the topic is really really shocked i was concerned that thing was still hard [Music] so there's good and bad the good is that the texture is amazing is super chewy the noodles are beautifully al dente texture is fantastic chase it with a little kimchi the sauce is super thick and rich only problem the flavor is really sweet i think if they dial back to sugar this is an amazing instant noodle as it stands though super super sweet chase it with my spam [Music] all right i'm gonna take a little break from instant noodles first of all this thing is only about 354. and just presentation-wise it looks so good already sesame oil on top oh that's our egg in here this thing just throw all the ingredients in here soy sauce sesame oil surprised it didn't give you any gochujang ah it's my fault really cool doesn't have just a bottle of gochujang sitting around this is delicious for 3.50 oh my goodness so flavorful it does 100 need the gochujang needs some spice but flavor wise this is on point the sauce flavor the rice and veggies remarkably well every bite you get a nice crunch from the veg the meat is yummy drop some kimchi juice in here yeah even better actually had a bottle of gochujang when i was at the last hotel finishing like two days i knew i should have bought another bottle next up i am so excited for this rose sauce flavored samyang oh look at this i've never seen these noodles before these are thick noodles three sauce packs samyam at least in my experience never disappoints i think this is going to be awesome [Music] this is really interesting nice thick noodles covered in this rose sauce delicious just like other samyang noodles this thing is lighting up fire on my tongue rose sauce is typically vodka sauce and this thing the flavor is deep it's creamy the noodle texture is fantastic this thing is so chewy this is one of the best noodle textures you'll find anywhere instant noodles this is so good i need to heat up some meat to go with it oh this looks delicious chunks of pig trotter bunch of fat tendon soaked into spicy sauce little cheese dipping sauce then wrap it up in a radish this is so good think about it out chase it with the instant noodles i mean seriously this is stuff i'm picking up at a convenience store i'd be happy this is the kind of stuff i eat every single day pig trotter dunk it into that spicy sauce usually 100 try it out that is a good way to eat pig trotters and your instant noodles next dish i'm trying this is a bit of a food hack i mean this food hack shows up everywhere so what they say is to get a pack of intestines so i got this and to get a bowl of instant [ __ ] this is gonna be a surprise potato chips and somehow these three ingredients combined together supposed to make a couple delicious dishes let me show you oh my goodness there's big chunks of beef in here and this is the real deal i mean it said it came with real stewed beef but i thought it was going to be kind of like the last instant noodle we had [Music] so while the foot is cooking throw this into the microwave [Music] time is up foot is cooked so apparently what you do now is you take the rice noodles take it out of the broth and you put it into the sauce in the intestines and just mix it up so this has basically become a dry fur with pig intestines first of all let me try this broth i mean honestly for instant [ __ ] that's not too shabby at all this thing first of all smells a little funky wow that is an amazing food hack what a great way to eat this first of all the rice noodles texture is fantastic it's dry so there's a lot more chew it's not soggy at all the sauce is delicious a little spicy super rich hmm a hint of sweetness oh the intestines are so good too nice hint of smoke it's fatty it's chewy but i know the flavors of this fruit hack will change based on what what type of flavor of intestines you get but this is so good i think the noodle is much better eating it dry here with this sauce it just goes with it perfectly of course it smells a bit funky ain't nothing funky about the taste though taste that of course some kimchi this is a must try food hack now also the noodles are so flavorful because they were cooked in a nice beef broth already before i even hit the sauce so that flavor just all sorts of deep you gotta try this food hack i mean it might take a little guts at first but you'll love it you really will the second part of this recipe if you think the large intestines are funky this is going to be even funkier of course now we got a ton of pho broth left over so what you do apparently is this i'm going to go ahead and use this tray take your chips again you don't have to get this flavor and get whatever flavor you want dump it into your container toss in some of that leftover pho and just start crunching the chips and just mash it all up until you get a creamy consistency if you haven't guessed it by now we're making mashed potatoes from chips and of course um if it's a little too wet add some more chips a little too dry add some more broth i think it's ready wow oh my goodness i think i really did just make mashed potatoes from potato chips i feel very doubtful yet optimistic this really actually is not bad i feel like the flavor i got maybe not maybe is isn't the best flavor for this i think this is uh cheese gratin flavor it's sweet if it wasn't sweet this should be pretty darn good i wonder who in the world first thought of this like when do you ever hold chips in your hand and think you know what let's dunk it in some foot broth and just mash it until it's pulp food innovation happens every single day i mean you guys should try it again do it with a different flavor of this but it is surprisingly tasty time for my second bag of juice peach i think that's enough food for today i've got the pig trotters to finish up my mashed potatoes but pretty much finish everything else i'll see you for breakfast good morning about um 7 30 8 o'clock in the morning woke up last night around 3 a.m starving so ate a bunch of the food that's why i gotta resupply see you [Music] all right let's see if the 711 has anything to do just got back found some pretty good stuff i'm starving first of all a couple sandwiches from yesterday one of them is a matcha strawberry sandwich with it looks like oh there's chocolate chips in here this is a bloody 10 out of 10. this might be the best sandwich i had in korean 711. i don't know if that's the hunger talking but this is crazy good i mean the bread first of all super soft no crust very nice matcha cream is delicious the strawberry is so juicy and fresh this is something you gotta buy the same day they make it otherwise it's not gonna be as good wow what game change of a sandwich every bite is delicate is tender is creamy as juicy and sweet it's crunchy and chocolatey have you ever had a 7-eleven in south korea look out for this sandwich and that sandwich was a good stop gap to get to the hot foods so i found kimchi fried rice what looks like some kind of abalone maple tofu i don't know what this is but it filled hefty and there's like slices of beef on it also this this is why i love grilled pork skin this is awesome let's do this mapo tofu it's gonna see what it says via google translate enriched soybean paste rice bowl a proper korean dish that satisfies both taste and quality at the same time with a generous amount of rice and tofu toppings and deep experience and supervision that sounds delicious inside you get a rice pack spoon and a sauce pack also they're sesame oil by the way if you're ever in south korea you rarely ever need to cook rice they sell these awesome individual portions of microwave rice everywhere my problem making rice is always make too much put the top back put in the microwave [Music] you definitely smell the soybean paste for sure this is awesome that's some sesame oil oh as soon as that oil went in that fragrance is pounding me oh i see my butter this is so good first of all i love the soybean paste it's such an aggressive earthy flavor tofu is tender the meat is good and super spicy too the flavor is great the only thing i can make this better what i would recommend everybody to get grocery wise if you're in south korea make sure to get a bunch of cheese just you don't know when they may come in handy like here i think a little cheesy tofu could be delicious open the cheese up dump it over the tofu dish i mean pretty much any stew any instant noodle any rice dish it's just gonna be better when it's cheesier [Music] all these potatoes are here too oh and the little bits of abalone i've even tasted that before all that with the added cheese actually awesome right now i'm gonna add in some of this ultra spicy kimchi as well do not take this lightly if you're not expecting it it might look like just any other kimchi i'm telling you it is not huh i remember this being spicier never mind i withdraw my warning it's just a little spicier this hmm is so amazing this next one i'm really excited about spam fried rice oh they have a handle here so when it gets too hot in the microwave you can just use the handle oh look at this you got your rice you got your pack of spam and sauce so this one rice goes in sauce goes in mix it up and you can keep this up on the stove [Music] so [Music] kind of messed us up a little bit didn't rectified it i didn't know what the pans were in this airbnb finally found some so by that time i already put the spam in the right so i took the spam out of the rice covered it in sugar a really good spam pack that i always use and then you sear it until the spin has got this really nice brown caramelized shell on the outside put it back into the rice again mozzarella cheese inside also i dropped some kimchi inside this should be a pretty fulfilling kimchi fried rice oh yeah this is awesome first of all the cheese is so nice the added additional kimchi brings such a nice crunch in the spam i'm telling you guys anytime you eat spam try this hack cover it in sugar drop it into the pan you are gonna fall in love with that sweet and savory flavor [Music] what i love also is that when you're eating food from a korean convenience store it never has to be boring there's so many different ingredients in there to make any dish as good as it is even better there's still a few food items left i'm gonna i'm gonna save for dinner i just want to try one more thing this might kill me i'm not sure look how intimidating this bowl of noodles look looks like simple instant noodles a couple packs of sauce that's a lot of red i'm going to change that with some of the pork skin this is what i absolutely love i mean i know this is microwaved but make no mistake the skin is thick it's gelatinous it's covered in chilies and it is so amazingly delicious [Music] when i was staying here in south korea last time for a couple months sometimes i'll just get some of this some rice instant noodles covered in cheese and i call that a pretty good night this is definitely the spiciest instant noodle i had in a while ah pretty good though nice and beefy too the flavor is not bad either goes pretty well with the pork skin i am definitely gonna feel it after this meal oh i forgot about this sandwich this is an interesting combination tuna salad and egg salad that on its own might not be too strange but check out what they also did to the sandwich by the way korean sandwiches are giant there's four slices of bread in each half so each half is a full sandwich on his own egg salad tuna salad and guess what ties it together in the middle holding these two sandwiches together a layer of strawberry jam sweet and savory this is actually pretty good i mean seriously sweet and savory tuna salad i love egg salad i love it's an egg and potato salad if you just kind of get past how strange this combination is honestly it really works there's nice crunchy carrots in the middle i mean it's creamy it's soft it's crunchy it's jammy your taste bud is telling you it's delicious your brain is still screaming at it this is a bit of weird oh also i do want to say if you cannot find the packages of mozzarella string cheese does the trick really really really well i usually keep a bunch of screen cheese at home so either when i'm hungry for a snack or i want to cook a bowl of noodles peel this apart toss it in with my ramen microwave for about 30 seconds and what i like to do sometimes is a double cheese combo a little mozzarella and throw some cheddar in there as well two kinds of cheese mixed in with this bowl of instant noodles oh that is spicy that is cheesy and that is yummy by the noodles bite at the pork skin the cheese works so well especially if your noodles are extremely spicy like the one i have here that's a fun couple days just chilling at home eating a convenience store hopefully you guys enjoy this video as always thank you all so much for watching until we eat again see you later
