AKEEP takes AAA on a Korean food tour

Back in early June, I had the pleasure of meeting with Jessica Fender, contributing author for AAA Explorer Magazine. Following her email inquiry, we sat down over a Korean BBQ and had a great conversation about Korea, AKEEP, and the culture of food. I recommended some of my personal favorites and I am glad she was able to visit them all. Her article, published in September, is a great look at the amazing food that is available to the community of Montgomery from our Korean cohorts. 

This meeting represents part of our mission at AKEEP--to connect locals and guests or other businesses and institutions of the greater Alabama area.  People like Jessica and AAA provide an amazing opportunity for others to learn about the great Korean community we have in Montgomery.  AKEEP is always looking to facilitate this kind of interaction, and in doing so, bridge gaps between the internationals and locals in our community. If you are interested in interacting with the community, consider joining or volunteering for AKEEP. You can get more information by emailing join@akeep.org
