A funny restaurant The last summer, I stumbled upon an excellent beef soup restaurant in my neighborhood. This type of peculiar beef soup is called Seolleongtang in Korean, which is a greatly loved traditional Korean dish for more than 500 years. When I ate a spoonful of soup, I knew right away that the chef was extraordinary. That was definitely the best Seolleongtang I've ever had in my entire life. And while having a conversation with the chef, I found a funny fact about his family. He told me that his daughter was raising a hen as a pet. He said that she bought a few fertile chicken eggs and an incubator one day, and that after a while just one out of them succeeded to hatch, which became her pet now. I was even able to see her pet hen in the flesh, because the chef's daughter walked into a restaurant with her hen in her arms, just like holding a baby dog. Indeed, the hen looked so neat and well taken care of that it was obviously a pet, not a livestock. That unusual scene was quite shocking at first, but soon I found the whole situation so hilarious. That was an extraordinary restaurant in many ways.
