Me: do you really have this?
(English speaking waiter): yep... exactly like the photo.

Waiter brings over:
nachos
vanilla ice-cream
chopped up kiwi
ketchup


We were a bit peeved... but it did look like the photo... kinda...at least the same colors....


Wow. That should be a crime. If we're looking for a winner, you've got my vote.


This isn't as bad as some, but one of my students once brought me a corn ice cream bar. I didn't want to offend him by not eating it, so I tried it. It wasn't bad, I guess. The corn was a little chewy.

Amazing Korean fusion restaurant. Just not in Korea. New restaurant by the guy that started the kogi taco craze.

I think I would be eating there every day if he were in Seoul.

I forgot about the baked potato with honey butter I got at Friday's. I was so looking forward to having a real baked potato with butter and sour cream. Then I took a bite and realized something was off. Honey butter and sour cream are not a good mix.

Pork cutlet filled with sweet potatoes and cheese and covered in some sugary asian/western "gravy".

On a good note, who knew seaweed tasted so d@mn good in everything. You can add it to soup, eggs, pasta, and various rice dishes (not just asian) and it works.

I couldn't disagree more. Seaweed, to me, makes everything taste like those sewage runoffs on the beach, where they would get all frothy when they mixed with seawater. Ecccch.
