| A couple of years ago, I went with a couple of friends to Little Seoul restaurant. It is behind WalMart Keaaumoku on Sheridan Street. Its a small little restaurant but it is rarely busy. We were handed some menus and right away we notice a menu item that caught us by surprise - SEASONED SILK WORM LARVAE. The waitress walked over to our table to ask us if we had any questions. Of course we asked if they really served silk worm larvae. She said yes so (of course) we ordered it.
Fast forward to 2011. I told the story of the silk worm larvae many times and I had not returned back to Little Seoul since then. Everytime I tell the story, everyone says they would eat it. So I decide to bring a few of my friends to try it. This time around, Little Seoul had a happy hour menu and the silk worm larvae was about 7 dollars (rather than over 10 dollars like the first time I tried it). We ordered it and everyone had a few. We also ordered some other dishes off of their happy hour menu. The food at Little Seoul restaurant is pretty good but the silk worm larvae is the reason I would bring people here. I will probably return there with a new set of adventurous friends soon.
I was thinking about describing the flavor of the silk worm larvae but I don't want to ruin the surprise for anyone who wants to try it. |
