[Clay meanwhile takes the empty plate away, setting it to the other side of the bowls and plates and out of the way of the two of them. While he's up, he'll start to pull threedishesover.]
Well, these are the three main dishes, so you can take your pick!
[He gestures to the first one] This one's spicy stir-fried chicken, or dak galbi. [...] Or, uh... spicy stir-fried raptor, and I don't know the Korean word for raptor. It's technically a chicken? Uh, anyway... The meat's been marinated in a red pepper sauce I made, and it's been mixed in with sesame leaves, sweet potatoes, leeks, cabbage, scallions, and some noodles, along with chili pepper sauce!
[And the second:] And since the first one's spicy, you might want to save this one for after it. This is chilled soy milk noodle soup, or kongguksu. For the former vegetarian side of you! I couldn't find the traditional soy milk, so I used the closest thing they have to it, which is still good! They're made with the beans I used, toasted sesame seeds, and mixed nuts all blended up to make the broth. In that are thin noodles, cucumber strips, and a little bit of tomato. It's a pretty popular summer recipe back home!
[Now, on to the final one:] And these are sushi rolls, or gimbap! They look like Japanese sushi, but there's actually some key differences. Gimbap has a lot more ingredients than the Japanese rolls, and nothing in here is raw. For these, I put in carrots, parboiled spinach, cucumber, eggs, radish, and a mix of raptor meat and seafood.
[Finally, Clay sits back down, leaning back so that Allen can can survey the food and make his choice.]
