Epic Story !
Spoon feeding non-koreans is one of their national past times. When I was in Brisbane at a Korean restaurant, the Korean waiter spoon-fed a female friend who had no clue. I miss the food ...
Enjoy !


Madtongsan restaurant?

Yea the preparation thing is pretty common. My GF and I were essentially fed by a Chinese-Korean waitress the entire time, it was quite interesting. This stuff is pretty common in Japan as well, but I think that's more of a sign of servileness than pity.

Anyway, sounds like you are having great fun, enjoy!

I don`t remember the name... the restaurant was just off the valley near the clubs.
It was located on the second floor.
There were alot of other asian restaurants around it aswell.

Wow, great read. You sound real cool and outgoing.

She brought me the beer, about 8 different side dishes, a spoon and chopsticks. One dish, onions, was placed in front of me. A guy placed the grill (so you know where i am) and the lady brought some meet. It looked like rips, dark marinated. I looked at her and she put the meat on the grill, turned it and asked me if i want to have it cut, i nodded. She did everything and then placed all the little meatparts on the outer ring of the grill and waited. I was lost. Before i had the chance to do anything she took a salad leaf, put some onions, something else, a piece of meat and something else again on it, folded it and...well she wanted to put it into my mouth. Amused as i was i grabbed it out of her hand and took a mouthful. SHIAT! Stuff was good! She was pleased and smiled and did the same thing again this time with other sidedishes. I shit you not for about 30 minutes straight this lady prepared everything for me. Like a mother feeding here retarded child. I tried to work myself in there and she said something out loud and people were laughing behind her but then she eventually let go of the whole process. Pleased with my basic motor skills she walked away and only came back to prepare more meat for me. I once waited a bit too long and it got burned a tinny bit, i wouldn't mind at all, but she took the pieces and cut the dark parts away.

Buaaah. I was full, relaxed and happy. Time to go "home"!


I hope you left her some humongous tip, I'd feel guilty if it wasn't 2x the price of a dish knowing how cheap the food there is.

This is just insulting. He is an attractive confident person himself; guy DJs and travels the world on a budget ffs.

the "look like you just shot her baby and his twin brother" is probably the "wtf" look that a lot of koreans reserve for foreigners

it's not particularly meanspirited, its just... a "wtf" look hehe


Dont get me wrong, the lady and all koreans so far have been nothing but very friendly to me. Even those who dont speak korean have done their best to make it work.

Haha yeah. Two guys in another row stood up and looked at me and we all laughed out loud.

Haha well. Korean guys tend to grab their hands, but i've seen so many guys getting rejected by girls doing that. When they backed into me they did not move at all. No dancing at all. That's why it looks so funny. I just put my hands around them, but dont try to touch em too much unless they want it.

It was by faaaar the most expensive meal i had. It was something like 46k haha. But these days everything goes from around 5k to 15k or if i drink alot 20k max.

That part on the aeroplane sounds awfully familiar.

Great blog. One question, are you making new thread every time when there's new part or posting it here? Just to know should i be searching for newest part or bookmark this.

e: Seems like i found the answer myself.
