I was eating some grilled chicken and washing it down with a banana milkshake when I realized something. I love women a great deal but I love my food even more.

My desire for women is not perpetual whereas eating delicious food is something I need every day. With the arrival of restaurants, I don't need a woman to cook for me either.

I love women dearly but my food is more important to me nowadays (only when I'm really hungry though). Laughing

You need your scoff three times a day FTUK, keep your strength up, whereas - women weaken legs! Wink

What I want to know is, how did you manage in Korea with all the really crappy local food? I rather liked Jjangmyeon (Chinese) and Omurice (Japanese) but the local Korean food was, well, lets face it - crap!

I just had crispy chicken with a strawberry drink, didn't think of women during that at all. Smile

I used to go to Itaewon each weekend, stock up on Pakistani food and store it in my fridge for the following week. I used to have sandwiches at work.

ha ha

It really is.

I was talking to my gf the other day and was saying, theres honestly not one dish I think Id really miss when I go home. Maybe a bi bim bap. Its all average food or not really korean anyway (noodles, bbq or what ever).

Id rather do a lot of things than eat Korean food but choose a woman over good food, id have to seriously think about that before I could answer...

(by the way, I thought the title suggested that you preferred to do something more than women prefer to do it, and was disappointed to find you don't like polishing your nails, taking selfies or what not lol)

It would depend on the woman presented in front of me...

If you go to the USA and look at the women waddling around the mall, this issue becomes even less confusing. Shocked

There's some great Korean food: Chooeo Tang, Dalkboggeumtang, Galbijjim, Bibimhoi, Bijijang, Al Tang... For some reason none of those are as popular as the boring-ass bibimbaps and jjigaes.

But yeah, it doesn't really compare to some other ethnicities' cuisine, especially in terms of variety. I'd kill for more easily available (ie outside of Itaewon) Middle Eastern, Lebanese and Mediterranean food.

Yeah I guess the grilled meat isn't really "Korean" but I would miss that experience regardless.

There are some foods that I would miss after leaving Korea. Like kimchi jjigae, samgyetang, and kamjatang, for instance. But I am quite picky about these dishes to begin with, and have a hard time finding good places even here in Korea. I think that part of the problem is that people have really bad or bland versions of these dishes and get turned off by them.

And why shouldn't they?
Put together some food and enjoy a nice field day picnic.
