After a full day at work, I returned to the hotel to freshen up. Two of my colleagues decided to spend their after-work hours having dinner with me, and they suggested going to Doma Korean Eatery.

We ordered Japchae, a seafood pancake, and fried chicken (original and snowing cheese). While the Japchae and seafood pancake were merely average, the chicken was exceptional. It had the expected crispy exterior and tender, juicy interior. Although I typically prefer the original flavor, the snowing cheese variant won me over. The fried chicken was coated in a special cheese powder that resembled falling snow. This powder was a blend of various cheeses, including parmesan and mozzarella.

We spent the next couple of hours chatting away. I suddenly realized how it felt to have friends and a sense of social life, something I hadn't experienced regularly since I left the Philippines nine years ago.
