Lunch at Incheon China Town/仁川中華街で昼食

My long holiday to Taiwan and Seoul finally end today.  It can be say that it is a long trip, getting around only two countries in 10 days! After finishing my breakfast, I was relaxed in my room till 11 am. After checking out, I moved to the Gimpo Airport International Terminal which is directly opposite of the hotel. I was waiting for a bus to Incheon Airport. Because of traffic jam, it took about 20 minutes to come. I got a before 12pm bus, and it took me about 30 minutes to the airport. At Incheon Airport, check-in counters of an Asiana Airlines are located at the endmost, so I must take a little walk from the bus. At the check-in counter for economy class, so-called travel class, was very crowded with other passengers, therefore it took my turn over 20 minutes. The time is 12:45 in the afternoon. I still have a time to take my flight at 5 pm, so I had decided to go to China Town by bus. The journey takes about an hour, but it's possible to take a taxi to come back in about 30 minutes by way of the Incheon Grand Bridge.
10日間の長い旅行もいよいよ今日で終わり。朝食を済ませ午前11時ごろまで部屋でゆっくりしていました。チェックアウト後真向かいの金浦空港国際線ターミナルへ移動し、仁川空港行きのバスを待っていたのですが交通渋滞のせいか来るまでに20分ほどかかりました。正午前のバスに乗り込みおよそ30分ほどで到着。搭乗するアシアナ航空のカウンターは一番端っこなのでバスを降りてから多少歩かなければなりません。トラベルクラスとも呼ばれるエコノミークラスのカウンターはとても混み合っていて自分の番になるまで20分ほどかかりました。時刻は午後12時45分。まだこの時間だと仁川の中華街に行っても5時発のフライトに間に合うと思い306番バスで中華街に行くことに。バスだと1時間ほどかかりますが、帰りはタクシーに乗って仁川大橋を通れば30分ほどで戻ってくることが可能です。

I took an 1 pm bus to China Town. Passing the Dong Incheon station after a while, you'll see the Jungdong Post Office. It's a compromise between East and West of the Renaissance style building which was built in 1924 of the Japanese colonial era.
1時過ぎのバスで一路中華街へ。東仁川駅を過ぎてしばらくすると車窓左手には仁川中洞(チュンドン)郵便局が見えてきます。日本植民地時代の1924年に建てられた和洋折衷のルネッサンス様式建物です。
I got off from a bus at Incheon Station and went up the hill road, and finally I got into China Town. Visiting China Town is a long time, since last October. It was weekday, so I couldn't see many tourists there.
仁川駅でバスを降りて早速中華街へ。ここを訪れたのは昨年10月以来久々です。この日は平日ということもあって人影はまばらでした。
This time I went to Cheong-gwan, one of the three biggest restaurant standing in the middle.
今回入ったところは3大レストランのうち真ん中に聳え立つ清館へ。
 I ordered fried rice and deep fried dumplings. Last time I want to have meat dumplings when entering restaurant nearby. But the menu was written as shrimp dumplings, I really don't want to eat it. So I ordered a steamed bun instead of dumplings, but it was no taste at all. 
焼き飯と揚げ餃子を注文。前回近くの店に入ったとき餃子を注文したくてメニューをよく見るとえび餃子と書いていた(おそらく肉餃子と間違えていたと思う)のでやめて饅頭にしましたが味なしなので まったくおいしくなく本当に失敗でした。

First coming out several side dishes, such as pickles. It's the most common way to serve with your meal. Unlike typical Chinese restaurants in Korea, they don't have kimchi as a side dish.
まず最初に定番であるたくあんなどのサイドディッシュが出てきます。韓国の典型的な中華料理店ではキムチが出されますがこの店ではありませんでした。
I ate fried dumplings without any mistake.
今回は間違いなく揚げ餃子をいただきました。
Finally fried rice came. It's a typical Korean style served with black bean sauce on rice.
最後に焼き飯が出ました。黒あんが添えている典型的な韓国風です。
The opposite and across the street, there's a small Turkish restaurant. Not only kebabs and pizza, they also have demonstration sale of Turkish ice cream. When I ordered a vanilla ice cream, he made me a long ice cream stick. It was very good for refreshing my mouth.
道路を隔てて向かい側にはトルコ料理店があって、ケバブやピザのほかトルコ式アイスクリームも実演販売しています。早速バニラアイスを注文すると店員さんが長いアイスバーのように作ってくれました。お口直しにはとても良かったです。
Going back to Incheon Station and I took a taxi to the airport. I was noticed after a while which I had forgotten my Wi-fi in the restaurant. I want to pick them up, so I must turned back in a hurry. I was explained the situation to the staff who are at the entrance of the parking. When getting inside the restaurant, a lady kindly told me "You forgot this". I must say to a lady, "Thanks so much". 
After picking up my Wi-fi, I was only headed to the airport. It seems to be a heavy traffic until Incheon Grand Bridge, he took the best route to cross the long bridge. Finally we got into the Airport Expressway. I arrived at the airport at 3:30. I had already done a check-in, I was immediately going toward the boarding gate after taking a security procedure and finished the immigration.
仁川駅まで戻ってタクシーで空港へ。しばらくして気付いたのがWi-fiをレストランに忘れてしまっていたこと。慌ててレストランまで引き返して入り口の駐車場にいる職員に事情を説明し中に入ると店員さんが「これ忘れているよ」と一言声をかけてくださって本当に助かりました。無事Wi-fiを引き取り後は空港へ向かうだけ。途中仁川大橋までが混雑していたのですばやく迂回路で出てもらい、長い橋を渡って空港高速に入り午後3時30分ごろ空港へ到着。すでにチェックイン済みなのですぐに保安検査を受け出国審査を終えて搭乗ゲートのほうへ向かいました。

To be continued..
続く..
