In case you're wandering around Suwon looking for the place, go look for this statue's butt:
It's on the left - if you click the pic, you can see a white-ish sign with a hand-powered burr grinder on it. Go get some coffee, you won't regret it! Pity they didn't provide receipts...
I did, however, manage to take a pic of Pepper's Americano - which, unlike the majority of coffee joints, did not come from a brew flask! Shame on Gloria Jeans at the Incheon Airport!!
Crema's gone because Pepper needed it to cool down a bit. And the stirrer was already there..Walking around in Suwon In Search Of Food yielded some interesting sights, like this Titanic Restaurant:
and a few occurrences of weirdo naming of pubs:
Seeing as how Pepper and I gorged on Cow and Pig the night before, we decided to go simple - at a Ramen place. Of course, I mean having a simple meal, not being nuts at a Ramen place. Although we were a little overwhelmed at the end of the day with this bit of visual overload
made slightly worse by the apparent disorganization
The wall surfaces you can't see in this photo were covered with a gazillion yellow, green, red, pink and purple post-its, with scribblings in Korean and various cartoons. The picture previous to this shows a customer's rendering of some sort of an egg, for a basket of eggs in a basket, that was on each table. Don't know if those eggs were raw, boiled, or preserved. The cartoon does not look reassuring.
Anyway, on to dinner pics:
Free flow Kimchi! (the brown pot with the red tongs (that looks like an unlit candle)). Pepper's dinner is in the metal lunch pot. Her dinner only filled half of it, so she was forced to pour out some onto the kidney bowls. The round pot is 
Spicy soup ramen (lamyeun) with an egg in it. Plain, but tasty and comforting (especially when it's 2 degrees Celcius out at night).
