Re: korean food renders all other food tasteless.
Just be careful eating live octopus. I've never done it, but I hear choking isn't uncommon.
Re Koreans being cheap: I can't think of too many cultures that have socially mandated generosity built into them to the extent Korean culture does. Anyone who has been out with a group of Koreans when the restaurant/bar bill comes knows what I mean. I used to notice that older parties at Korean restaurants were brought more panchan than younger parties, but even that seems to be disappearing, probably due to the waitstaff realizing that the younger patrons tip better. I'll be sure to think of all y'all as I eat dinner in NYC K-town tonight. I feel like having me some budae jigae.

Korean food rules and Korean chicks are the hottest non-halfie Asians. [/ QUOTE ] Amen to that. The picture in the original post is pretty much what I imagined KKF to look like. Even though it isn't him, that will not stop me from believing that it is. DN

That is truly awesome. What's it taste like, what's it comparable to I mean? [/ QUOTE ] Soju is comparable in taste to cold sake. It gives some gnarly hangovers although it has half the alcohol content as vodka. I have a love/hate relationship with it, as most Koreans do. DN

Re: korean food renders all other food tasteless.
I just realized why it is so awesome to live in Korea. You can eat as much Korean food and kimchi as you want and not have to worry about how you smell. That rules.

Re: korean food renders all other food tasteless.
for the uninitiated, stick to tangs. chigaes and gooksoos are far more adventureously flavored. but sullung tang and the aforementioned ssam geh tang will be right up your alley.
i bet sam geh tang is relatively good for you too. at least that's what my mom always said. but go ahead and order the kalbi if you want it, there's no shame. i'm korean and go into korean places just for kalbi and bulgogi all the time. it's fookin good.

Re: korean food renders all other food tasteless.
"Have you tried Singaporean food?"
What do you mean? I dont think there is really a "Singaporean meal" is there? There is either Malay food, or Chinese food, right? Ive been to Singapore several times. Ive found alot of the food there good, but below average compared to the rest of Asia.

Re: korean food renders all other food tasteless.
I think Thai is hotter than Korean, but Korean is definitely number 2.
