Bibimbap essentially means 'mixed meal' and what you get is a bowl of rice topped with a variety of vegetables and often a raw egg. You then mix it all together (the heat of the rice cooks the egg). This being Korea you also get a whole load of side dishes.
For lunch I went to a place called Gogung and had a Bibimbap and a Seafood and Spring Onion Pancake. When it turned up it was obvious that this was not a combination designed to be eaten by one person (and that's before we contemplate the 6 or so side dishes).
However I was up for the challenge!
I paced my self and did a pretty good job. All the side dishes went (including the three different types of kimchi) and most of the Bibimbap and Pancake.
Gluttony aside the food was really good (although I reckon I've had my fill of kimchi).
