The Korean foodporn hashtag on Instagram: #먹스타그램 I've been active on Instagram(IG) for over a year now and a couple of months ago I decided to just make my instagram a food photo blog.

I've been a Korean food junkie since my university days so I love checking out Korean foodporn shots on the internet.  As many Instagram users know, hashtags are used to make your photos be more popular and accessible and so I use a lot of hashtags on my photos.  I've been cooking a lot of Korean food nowadays because of the availability issues I have in the country where I live.

Doha Finds: Korean Food Center in Doha I've been visiting this mart for the past year. This is the one and ONLY Korean Food Mart here in Doha! They sell limited korean items but you can definitely get basic Korean stuff like Ramyun (라면), Jjajangmyun (짜장면), Kimchi (김치), scrubber, tea (차), clay pots and frozen food. They even sell Korean table top stove (가스 렌즈), grill plate and Korean Ice Cream! The store is located at Al Jazeera road. Best landmark would be the corner of Red Lobster restaurant in C-Ring (the road that leads to the Ramada (now Radisson Blu) Hotel and Casa del Gelato. The ahjussi was really kind and gave us free ice cream because I spoke to him in Korean, I was kind of asking for it too. lol Hope this information was in anyway useful to my dearest friends (and for people who lives in Doha too) that are looking for this place. Til my next blog! Thanks for watching! For questions, suggestions etc., follow me on: twitter.com/debbietingzon K...
