""As someone who spent my early 20s living in Seoul, I was eager to pick up Julien Kim’s A Day In Seoul to bring me back. Kim’s book hits on the way Seoulites eat: casually, communally, and most importantly, out. Rooted in street food, everyday eateries, and food stalls, A Day In Seoul translates dishes people ordinarily order out into approachable recipes you can make at home. One that immediately caught my eye was Gilgeori Toast, a cabbage and egg omelet folded between two pieces of toast, Korea’s equivalent to NYC’s bacon, egg, and cheese. I have visceral memories of strolling home after long evenings and stopping at these toast stands for a late-night snack to stave off any morning hangover (wishful thinking). Kim’s version tasted just like how I remember, complete with a dusting of sugar and a squeeze of ketchup."" —June Kim, executive editor for bon appétit
