Great Adventure at a Korean Restaurant (in Korea)

I am currently in China and Korea for work. While visiting the island of Jeju South Korea we came across this little hole in the wall restaurant that Anthony Bourdain would kill to visit. 

 We pulled up to stools at low metal table with a huge cast iron burner sitting on it. The people working there couldn't speak English or Chinese (we had two friends from china with us) and of course we could not speak Korean, so we ordered by pointing at food at the few other tables occupied in the small place.

We had a feast of oysters pan boiled at an open propane flame on our table. They were fresh caught - probably about 75 of them or maybe more.

We were given plastic and wool gloves to handle the oyster along with sharp knives and buckets for the shells. See my colleague Ted holding up the equipment.

Below is a great video of the oyster unveiling.  This main dish was coupled with chicken feet (see pic) , noodles, local beer, rice wine, and a variety delicious appetizers.  

There were 5 of us and you might think this cost a fortune. The oysters along would likely cost over $300 in LA.  All the food, drink and tax for everyone at about $80 USD.

Probably one of the most interesting and memorable meals I have ever had.
