Paella : My favorite Spanish Dish:D

LA PAELLA !!

'Paella' is a typical Valencian rice dish. You can call it just Spanish food though.

At my favorite town in Korea, there is an awesome spanish restaurant, called 'El Plato.'

When I wanted to serve my best friend some special dinner for celebrating his college entrance,

I took him there and bought him a paella. It was just right. I and he loved that!!

The combination of plenty seafood flavor and special spanish rice was fantastic.

This dish looks not that luxury nor formal, but you can enjoy not only taste but also mood.

First of all, this dish is not that easy nor simple. Nevertheless, it's worth a try!:D
