BUL-GO-GI!!!! (Korean beef)

ramyun, that's Korean ramen :)

Get their cold noodles. ****e I forgot what they are called... Naeng-myun, I think that's it!

gim-bapp, or is it gim-bbap? Seaweed covered rice.

Ever had soju?

I suck at Korean now :(

An Asian Pear is muy delicioso (IMHO). I buy them at the Korean Market near my home. Of course I would also recommend drinking green tea steeped in a traditional Yixing (Chinese clay) or Tetsubin (Japanese iron) tea pot. Very soothing. Very healthy. Very good.

IronFist: I ate that when i went to USA (at a really good korean restaurant) i found it to be too dry :) It wasnt the cooking, the meat itself was great, but i want some sauce or something on my food, i should have gone for something spicier that always had some sauce on it.

It tasted fine though, i was sick though and had a low appetite, hardly made a dent in the huge plate (i think the waiter thought i didnt like it).

must get barbecue!!!

why they insist on wrapping their meat in lettuce is beyond me, though.

I'm not a seafood fan, so I can't give you much more advice.

Edamame. In the shell. High protien, low fat.

And some pocky sticks for fun. (Pocky for Men ofcourse, in the green box).

I'll be leaving in an hour or so.
There's also lots of Japanese and Chinese foods there too, not just Korean. So keep those suggestions coming. ;)

I have some Pocky for men (see my thread, hehe). Can guys buy the other kinds or is that considered gay? I bought some strawberry ones in a pink box, shìt, I hope the chick at the register didn't think I was a hómo!

just find yourself a good vietnamese shop and live off pho for the next 10 years.

a new vietnamese shop opened up in town here a few months back, and i swear my roommate and i sustained it during it's lean opening months. i think we ate there three times per week. that, indeed, gives one a very rubbable buddha. :D
