North Korea Travel Guide

North Korea — Food and Dining

Cuisine

Restaurants can be found in the main towns and cooking is usually based on the staple food: rice. In hotels and restaurants it is better to stick to the Chinese, Japanese or Korean items on the menu as experience of Western and Russian cooking is limited. Eating out is arranged by the guide.

Tipping: Officially frowned upon although some hotel staff may expect a tip.

Nightlife

A night at the revolutionary opera provides a unique experience. There are also circuses and musical events of a high quality.
