I used to get pretty damn good Mexican food near PNU in Pusan. There's a small Mexican restaurant there. While it isn't the best and it's a little pricey, the portions are big and it does fulfill that need. I forgot the name now. If you walk down the main street toward the campus, turn right one street before the gates and then take your next left. Even if you can't find, just start asking people nearby. I wrote pusanweb.com about the place, but I never checked to see if they posted anything about.
I miss:
Taco Bell
McD's breakfast
good chocolate cake and brownies (esp. brownie sundaes)
yes, real pizza, like NY Pizza, thin and fresh from the oven
Wise potato chips
overflowing spaghetti dinners with meatballs
filet mingion
blueberry, pumpkin, and pecan pies from the farmer's markets
real cheese!
etc...
But I should add I love Korean food and prefer it to the diet I used to exist on as a bachelor in NY.

regarding "american style chinese food".. I saw HO LEE CHOW has opened up in the Hamilton hotel... I haven't been there yet, but it is a Toronto-based company..
if it has the same menu as back in TO, then they've got the eggrolls, sweet and sour chicken balls... etc...
man.. just talking about it makes me want to do a subway trip there now  |

Decent NYC style pizza with a fair layer of sauce. No canned corn or no sides of sweet pickles please and no impenetrable layer of cheese covering the toppings. No soggy pepperoni, please.
|
Tavola in Itaewon, one step better than NCY, it's Italian pizza, the ONLY kind ... pricey though. |

Shawner88, it is called "Terra," head up towards
the gates of PNU, when you go past McDonalds and
see Pizza Hut, turn right and you should pass the
Duncan Donuts. The next chance to turn left,
do so when your at the vitamin store, and you should
see the place. It's the only Mexican food place I know
of in Korea, and it is sometimes not open during the day. |
