I came to have brunch at Island Kitchen restaurant located on the 2nd floor of JW Marriott Hotel!
Jeju Brunch Royale menu for breakfast and lunch
Are you bringing the buffet?
Brunch Royale prepares a buffet for breakfast!
I found my favorite combination right from the start
My favorite chili french fries combination
I really like guacamole
Not yet... I'll get it on the second round
I really wanted chili...
[Cute daughter showing off to mother] French fries and chili sauce just like mom had in Canada!
I'm so happy now too
My mother was invited to a seafood party
(A snack corner prepared with Jeju’s Modakchigi vibe!)
There's salmon too!
Egg sushi looks delicious!
Egg sushi~
(She has no soul in uninteresting food..)
This is heaven for what you like!
There are a lot of foods I like
There are many things to eat
Keeping the first round light like this~
Quite a hot breakfast spot
[It’s a field I’m not interested in.. haha] Caviar also comes as standard!
Green barley bread, egg garnish, sauce etc. to go with the caviar!
It looks so delicious, right?
Mom, eat a lot of seafood
My mom liked it so much for the first time in a long time haha
Mom is satisfied and I am also satisfied!
I can't eat seafood at home because my family doesn't like it
I like this so much!
The hotel is so good that it would be nice to come here for a honeymoon
Feels a bit like Bali
(A place that makes me want to honeymoon twice haha)
Excited steps
This is so delicious (shy)
I think I need to eat it again
She looks happier than ever...
(There are so many delicacies)
My mother is eating delicious seafood
The daughter has french fries..hahaha
(I feel so empty...)
I always buy a can of sour cream at home
I eat chicken breast dipped in this
(Tteokbokki, which I've been interested in since a while ago)
Just two pieces of rice cake, since I don’t eat a lot of rice cake
And things like green onions...
Unlimited soup refills(?)
(I love soup more than you can imagine)
The meaning of modakchigi is to eat it dipped in soup, so I will dip in as well!
(The riceballs are just on the plate.. haha)
This is really good
What's the difference with the first plate..?
(Magic that keeps on putting only the things you like)
Strawberries in the salad, too!
But barley bread is really good, it's savory
(Just my style)
I should ask where they buy barley bread
(Unfortunately, they say they baked it themselves...)
I'm no different from the first plate
Leaving out the amazing seafood..
That's why I don't come to a buffet, it's a waste
Are you not going to eat Galbi? There's Galbi-Jjim, too
(Actually, there were a lot of different foods)
I've been eating meat since morning
Soak it in the soup and enjoy tteokbokki
And in the end, my hands keep going for the chili fries
Even if it wasn't the best on my mom's standard, it's a happy brunch time!
You can order unlimited main dishes that you want to eat at brunch royal!
I'll order bracken rice cake soup!
(Impresses soup lovers)
The soup is really good
Wow, this is really good?
Hold on. Bye
Really serious about the soup!
Candidate 1. Pecan tart
Candidate 2. Cheesecake
Why are these so pretty?
(I have to film this..)
(It's so cute, so take a picture first!)
(I was eventually attracted to the visuals)
Kind of... Chocolate and raspberry!
(The tasting team came suddenly)
Dessert and perfect iced americano
A must-visit swimming pool for guests!
Oh, this is cute, okay
I should take a close-up shot
(The photographer seems very satisfied)
Photo time is required before entering the water
Oh my! This is so pretty
(Satisfied watching each other's pictures.. haha)
It's a bit chilly this day because of the wind
The view was so pretty, but it was nice because the water was warm
Pretending to swim!
I'm the water fairy
(I didn't swim because I had another schedule afterwards, so I played like this lol)
We talked in the water for a long time..
I've become a drowning mouse
I think we're getting a lot of sunlight now that we're out here
I know. So I like it because it's so warm
The cool breeze makes me feel great
My serious concern
Whether I should come here as my honeymoon place
A perfect weather and humidity.. It was so quiet and nice
Let's look around Jeju island..!
I thought it would be a bummer if I just stayed at the hotel, so I came out
See you again~!
Happily departed~!
It's a party!
It's more of a party than I thought...!
[There's even wine!] Of course there are some snacks and soft drinks..
Even ramen..!
(Starting with fish cake soup)
I’ll give you just this much, so that you don’t spill it
And mine
It's so funny that they got ramen here
If only we weren’t going to eat now... lol
We're going to a really good restaurant, so we decided to not eat here
(My body's heating up)
Let's go!
Jiyeon goes out ambitiously
The ocean's so close than what I thought
(Little bit intimidated)
(Wind seems extraordinary)
We occasionally stopped and the guide explained about the scenery
That is elephant island that looks like elephant!
Taking a picture with the elephant
She's crazy about taking photos
I was kind of scared since it's my first time taking a yacht, but it was quiet fun
It's a photo spot that's popular in social media
I heard people take lots of photo here!
I should join then
Meanwhile, there are people who succeeded in fishing! (Interesting)
I'm so into Jeju's sunset
But the wind got stronger in the evening
Wind blows me away~
My ribbon flew away...
(Pathetic) Luckily, they saved it
(Going home after being scolded by Jeju wind)
If you like fishing or something, this would be much more interesting
But we both hate fish..LOL
Bitter weather of 8 degrees
[What would I have done without the soup?] Take a fish cake, too
I mean, this is fish, you know
I don't want to eat something alive(?)
It's time to go out to the land
I'm gonna take this again in Busan!
Or I can just take cruise ship in Han river in front of my home..hehe
Maybe I'll just take boats from now on...!
Arrived!
Let's go eat something delicious now!
Today’s welcome food
It's party time!
Pork belly, skirt steak, sirloin
[The menu name is bone-in sirloin] Similar to a tomahawk cut!
They unexpectedly grill white kimchi here!
(And..)
(The meats are slowly cooking, making my mouth water)
Since our meat is aged
It contains 40 to 50% fat
(It's surprisingly light and savory, without being greasy)
You can enjoy the lean meat like steak!
The best way to enjoy it is cooked to medium-well done, like beef
They recommend it when it has a slight pinkish hue
(Now is not the time to eat perilla leaves, mom)
(Agreed)
You have a reason to be famous, don't you?
[A tip to eat it more deliciously by the manager?!] Dip it in anchovy Jeot for extra flavor!
Give it a touch of the scent of pickled anchovy sauce first~
Low-sodium option~
Add a bit of spicy cod roe too
Finish it off with wasabi!
Or even better, add some pickled vegetables for the perfect finishing touch!
(Indeed, how does it taste?!)
(A moment of truth after a long time)
A combination that immediately captivates
You know.. the side dishes and sauces were incredibly flavorful
Here comes the dongchimi noodles~!
(Clapping)
I'm excited because the dongchimi noodles I ordered have arrived :)
Brilliant..!
[If I were to spoil it, they were all five-star dishes…] Others ordered grilled cutlassfish with fermented fish intestines and fermented Soybean paste rice!
Lately, I've been really into these refreshing noodles
(Seems like truly wonderful) I love this kind of refreshing vibe
That's it~
Just as I was eating the meat, I took a refreshing bite~!
The white kimchi is also really tasty
I usually don't eat samgyeopsal without kimchi or pickled vegetables
But both of them are not available
It tastes just like grilled kimchi!?
(Actually, it's even cleaner and tastier..!)
Mom trying to show her friend a great restaurant
[Mom seems satisfied too!] This one's delicious too~
Is it delicious?
Just a little... mainly tofu!
When I go to a meat restaurant, I don't eat meat, I just eat things like this
So so so delicious…
(I really love soupy dishes...) Dieting must have been tough
So, that's why I do it really strictly
But I can't cheer up if I don't eat things like that
(Feeling annoyed because it's so good)
Tastes so good hehe
Mom hid the rice so that I could eat more meat
It seems like it's intentional, so I'm trying to eat it on purpose
There's no way my mom wouldn't recommend it
Manager wants to eat it again
What's your favorite, Jiyeon?
Me? For me it's Kimchi jjigae(Kimchi soup) and Doenjang jjigae(Soy bean paste soup)
(The meat was great but I love soup)
Can't believe that the free-served stew is this delicious
My energy is fully replenished
The night view on our way back to the hotel is so pretty
(So sad that I have to leave this place tomorrow)
Can't just go to bed
I'll take a warm half-body bath and get a good sleep
Same Island kitchen but I came here for breakfast
What is this?
(Truffle butter served with bread?)
I'm gonna try it out
Do you want to share this crossaint?
[The breakfast here is so unusual] (We decided to share half of it because there's rice for us)
The truffle butter smell is so amazing!
It tastes better with just strawberries
(Not my style)
Strawberries are the best
It's so convenient to take Dyson to trips because I don't need to get my hair ironed
(The dryer in the room was also a Dyson Supersonic, so I didn't bring it because I wanted to borrow my mom's)
But I felt so comfortable with the Dyson Airwrap that mom brought
JW Jeju Bansang(a menu served with side dishes)
Squeak, squeak, squeak
My favorite, mushroom!
(Loving Kinchi all the time)
Healing from this morning with neat and savory rice
Adding more sauce
Kimchi jjigae(Kimchi soup) is more spicy than I thought
(It would be a little bit spicy for foreigners!)
I think Kimchi is spicy
(To be honest, it was perfect for my taste)
I think I can live a long life if I eat here often
Breakfast with both taste and health
I think I'll gain my physical strength with this meal
You didn't eat it at home because it was not good?
Hahahaha
Well, so do we
(Mom would be happy with someone who cooks for her)
We had a happy breakfast which was prepared by others
Walking
Lastly, we're going to see the rape flower field
Last walk of today!
[Little devil mode On] First walk of today~
I want to show the ocean here
I'm taking a walk with my mom~
Nice!
Where is the field of canola flowers..?
(The staff I met by chance helped guide me!)
We discovered the canola flower field along the way
(Can you feel this..? It was so pretty)
You know Choy Sum you eat when you travel to Hong Kong
[I didn't know that we can eat canola flowers..!] Canola flower is Choy Sum
(He was on his way back from harvesting LOL)
I heard that they collect it before it blooms and use it for food
A man with the canola flowers
He's like a person from the heaven!
Do you have belief on me?
(He was funny LOL thank you)
The road here is beautiful
I want to take them since I heard these are vegetables
(Mom has different sentiment with me)
Wow, so pretty
Canola flowers are so pretty, it's so yellow
This is my first time seeing this flower, and they were beautiful
Look at them right here
So pretty...
If you go to Seogwipo, make sure to go in spring!
I didn't know canola flowers were this pretty
Jiyeon and canola flowers go well together
Really?
March's...
March flowers
March flowers hehe
(Just say yes~)
It's time to take pictures with flowers~
[Let's play around and make some memories] Guess which one is the flower~
It's time to say goodbye to Jeju..!
Last place we visit out of regret
I brought this one out because the ocean was so pretty hehe
(It got the attention of tourists..!)
I guess they said something nice to me
(I don't know exactly because it's Chinese, but they smiled happily)
(Let's take a look at the Jeju vibe!)
I'm gonna try this icecream now
The outside is like bread
It was soft and tender on the outside, but there is icecream on the inside so it’s good
I'm gonna try basalt-looking one!
Green tea? You liked it?
I think you should definitely this, the texture's so unique
It's much softer than bbangttoa..
I came back inside of the shop to eat them with mom:)
I wanted mom to feel this weird texture
She said it was like cheese!
Who is this cute one?
I think its name was Todang, right?
It's Tobong
A spoonful of Tobong..
What does it taste like?
Jelly with very soft texture!
It reminds me of Jell-o!
It's not like pudding
Thicker!
The green leave is the core of taste!
It felt like eating DippinDots
This one is really odd, by the way
I've never tasted something like this
So soft like creamcheese and bread
(Only flaw.. need some tissue paper)
It’s just green tea flavored ice cream in the middle righteousness ?
It was green tea flavored ice cream with some nuts in it
I love the view here
You can see the ocean all over the window
I can sit here all day
If you're planning to use the airport
It would be nice to have these before or after your flight
Only 10 minutes by car from Jeju international airport
I want to have this after having green tea one
I want to have this after having jell-o one
(I recommend you to order both)
Trip to Jeju that gave me cute memories with my mom is done!
