This Korean restaurant is located in Tanggerang, just outside Jakarta, not far from Cengkareng International Airport.
I haven’t actually been inside this place yet. But the signboard really got my attention: Yeong Dung Poo.
The name’s probably nothing extraordinary to Koreans — it’s just the name of a place in southwest Seoul, South Korea. But to native English speakers, the last two parts of the restaurant’s name can really mess up one’s appetite ;)
Enjoy your weekend, everyone!
