| I will in the air less than 24 hours from now. I have everything planned but I would want to know what you guys would do the first 48 hour in Korea if you had to do it all over again. I mean if you had a 48 hours to kill. |

| Eat your favorite foods. Chances are you won't be having them anytime soon. |

I did have my last meal yesterday. BBQ tri-tip. I hope Korea has some good BBQ places.
Are there any comfort food or country style cooking restaurants in Korea?

I had Mexican at El Torito. Was torn between that and In'N'Out, but i think I made the right decision.
Then a whiskey at the airport bar with my best friend, and a touching but not gay farewell. It's a very fond memory, now. |

OMG!!! I hope there is a good hamberger joint other than McDonalds in Korea. Is it also true that you will have hard time finding Mexican food? |

Korean bbq? Never heard of it.
Re: fast food: there is Burger King and there are some Korean burger chains, but I haven't tried any.
There is a really good Mexican place in Itaewon (it's not too expensive, which surprised me), but Ankara Kebab is the king of fast food in Seoul. Mexican food is pretty much impossible outside of the big cities--at least where I've been. |

In Korea, 90% of the food you'll be eating is Korean.
The only western joints that I can think of are McDonalds, Subway, Burger King, KFC, Bennigan's, VIPs and the places in Itaewon. |
