I'm confused. Are you trying to say you live in a nice area or a shitty area? I'm 20 minutes away from my favorite Korean place (there's a bunch of shitty strip mall places much closer). Not having access to good food within a reasonable driving distance is a sign of living in a poor area.

That's a shame. I bought probably the cheapest one they had at the Korean grocery store and it still came with this shitty wooden trivet. I think it was around $7; definitely under $10. It's basically impossible to eat out of one without a trivet unless you want to burn a hole in your table/desk.

Holy shit, I can't reply to all of you but I had no clue my post caused such a divisive shitshow. I usually just post and leave. Pretty funny. Thanks for all the love from the legit ones out there, and all the tranny-obsessed freaks that care about how random people in public perceive them can have fun dying unhappy and alone.

Thai is probably the worst Asian cuisine. One would have an infinitely more satisfying meal getting Indian or Chinese instead.

I like their corndogs and bulgogi. Everything else I've tried from them fucking sucks. Kimchi sucks and gives you stomach cancer. There's nothing special about their fried chicken or bbq. Korean food is bottom tier Asian food.

Korean food is shit. Sorry, but it's just not very good. It's literally all just chili flake or kimchi.

A Kong Dog has recently opened near me and it's pretty fucking awesome, didn't know it was considered Korean but it's a good take on nuAmericana using an old American treat. However, I've always been into corndogs, it's something I only find at a carnival so having one available nearby makes me feel a childlike happy
