~ New Honey Pig at Centreville, VA ~

I briefly mentioned Honey Pig before, but really, this place deserves its own post.  Who doesn't like Honey Pig?  I used to go to the one in Annadale, but I found a new one!  It's right next to Spa World in Centerville.  What an awesome, relaxing day to go to spa, eat korean bbq at Honey Pig, grab some groceries at the Korean grocery store and have some desserts at Jireh's bakery across the street.... Anyway, here are some yummy pictures!  These are the side dishes....

This is the hangover soup.  What a funny name.  The meat is very tender and the soup is very flavorful.  To me, it tasted a little like lamb, but my friend says it's pork.

For 4 girls, we ordered 3 dishes... 2 pork bellies and 1 boneless beef.  I think the beef with bone is usually better though.  I love the pork bellies!  It's such a guilty pleasure.

At Honey Pig, the waitresses come by and cook for you.  They also give you some kim chi on the grill and lettuce and rice to go with the meat.  *drool*  So, 3 dishes and a soup was perfect for us 4 girls.  It's about $15/person so it was not bad at all.

As a side note, I saw live abalone at the grocery store next to honey pig!  I don't think I have ever seen live abalone in America before.  $6 each though!  I was tempted to get one just to see how it tastes.... but they look so creepy!

ahah Honey Pig xD That will always be an awkward translation to me xD Supposedly hangover soup is...good for curing hangovers... Beats me if it works but I have friends who say it does xD I had abalone in Korea at a restaurant that specialized in Cantonese food - it actually tastes quite good! It looks much more appetizing without it's shell :)
