Beyond Birthdays—Blessing Life with miss KOREA BBQ’s Doljanchi
New York, NY (PRWEB) June 19, 2014 -- Miss KOREA BBQ brings the Korean tradition of Dol to New York City, introducing a new standard for how birthdays are meant to be celebrated. Drawing from the Korean custom of throwing grand first birthday parties for babies, the restaurant now offers the full package ceremony for all birthday boys and girls—regardless of age.
From the abundance of food set on the Dolsang table to the formalized practice of Doljabi that foresees the future, miss KOREA diligently prepares each part of the Doljanchi, Korean for first birthday party, to present a positive outlook on life and the forthcoming future. Though the practices are traditionally a celebration of a baby’s first birthday, at miss KOREA, every birthday deserves the full festivities of Dol.
Miss KOREA makes all of the true Korean Dol traditions available in the heart of Manhattan, to anyone who is looking to enjoy a very special birthday celebration. The ceremony, full of fortune and blessing, is appropriate for everyone wanting to express their true appreciation for life. The party also acts as a good luck charm, as it draws inspiration from nature and incorporates maximal symbolism that ensures a long and prosperous life.
The main event of the Dol celebration is called Doljabi, a fortune telling ritual in which the birthday baby picks up an item from an array of objects representing a range of life pursuits. The choices include a microphone that predicts a future in the entertainment business, a baseball for a career in athletics, a book and pen for scholarly pursuits, and money for success in wealth.
Miss KOREA keeps true to tradition in its rendition of Dolsang, including all major food items conventionally included as part of the table setting. Each carries its own meaning in symbolizing fortune. White rice is placed on the table to signify boundless wealth and the blessing of having things to eat, long strands of thread for longevity, fruits for prosperity, and an assortment of green-leaved vegetables for vitality and creativity. The grandeur of the Dolsang is highlighted with a layered birthday rice cake, surrounded by tall piles of food blessing life with prosperity.
Promoting its core values, miss KOREA strives to share Korean culture and its practices with the global demographic of New York City. In addition to the food and Doljabi preparations, the restaurant provides Hanbok, traditional Korean attire, to those who celebrate their Dol birthday at miss KOREA, while adorning with abundant decorations of beautiful Korean silks and fabrics.
The introduction of miss KOREA’s Dol services is exciting news, as everyone now has a chance at having the most meaningful and memorable birthday party ever. Party guests are served Korean BBQ course meals catered by miss KOREA.
