Hello,

I wanted to share with you guys what I found to be a great find in Hongdae. For those of your from Australia and New Zealand, you may already be familiar with it, but I had no clue before I started going there. Jester's Pies <http://dmaps.kr/exme> These things are so freaking delicious. I have been going there off and on for about a year and a half now and thought I would share if with you guys.

bon appetit

Jester's failed and went basically bankrupt in Korea, most if not all of the places are now run by new people who bought them for bargain prices, the pies are now basically cornflour and flavouring... take a look and you will notice they have removed most of their advertising from the store...

^ Yeah, that place is kind of gross. I think the one in Itaewon has branched off and started selling hot dogs as well, which seems a little weird.

I'm not sure if it's the same thing (I'm only an ignorant N. American), but the S. African place in Itaewon has wonderful pies.

They're nothing special to me. I've yet to hear of any Australians who think those Jester's pies are worth much. Most of the people I've met who think these pies are a big deal are South Africans. Some lose their minds over these pies. Is there any reason for that?
