Is there a Five Guys near you? Their fries are boss, but I dunno about their shakes. Shake Shack has great shakes, and I know they have outlets in Seoul, but their fries are nothing special.

I've never heard of a Five Guys in Korea.

Korean pizza has the unfortunate tendency to just throw toppings on top of toppings because they have this belief that more is better.

To which I say, while appropriating Polsy's catchphrase, more is mou.

This is very wrong and Korean pizza is bad.

Dipping fries in a milkshake is good, but yeah Shake Shack is meh (although I've never actually bothered going to the one in Gangnam). Also since when is there Five Guys in Korea??

Yeah, as I said, their fries are nothing special. Their shakes and concretes and burgers are drat good though, but that might just be my NYC talking.

I didn't go there for the longest time cause the lines were so loving long.

I pretty much only go there on days that I work overtime, cause then there are less people and I don't have to wait in line.

It's expensive as hell though, compared to your standard chain burger place, so I don't really go there often.

That's fair, I used to brave the hour long waits at the original physical shack in Madison Square Park back when they first opened the better part of a decade back, and I felt it was worth.

Yeah, it can be expensive, but if I'm in an area with a Shake Shack and I'm craving a burg or a shake, that's where I go. Their prices are comparable to other decent non fast food burgers in the city here.

This is a very good question, and also what was on the fries, was it cream or mayo.

Here's my suggestion, take the patty and remove it from the burger, and also take the fried chicken patty and remove it from the burger two, and then put them on a plate. And then take out all the veggies and toss them in like, a small bowl, or whatever.

Also, take the sauce and put it on top of the patties or in a small container.

Finally, replace the buns with rice, and put it on the plate too.

At this point, you can't legally call it a hamburger, so remove the -er and just like, add a random word in the back.

As I said last page, the first and second years visit Lucky Pierrot in the TekuTeku Aqours special visiting Hakodate on the latest BD, Lantis posted a preview on their YouTube channel.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MV2vbOrG8O0
About a minute in. They also get the fries in a mug with what looks to be cheese and gravy, and of course King gets the same monster :burger: that she ate in the anime, but she uses a fork and knife for it. The preview makes it seem like all the first years get that burg, while the second years just get kara age burgs instead. Doesn't matter, they still look delicious.

Also, love the fact that they're wearing the same design of (school issue?) coats in Hakodate that they were in the anime, complete with Ainya being in white.

KFCs in China don't either, in my experience. The last (and only) time I was in China, I had to help a group of (apparently American) black people order at a KFC in Guangzhou because the menu was so different when all they were hoping for was something familiar to them.

Honestly Korean pizza isn't THAT bad once you understand that it no longer is proper pizza but just bread with toppings.

I did go "holy poo poo what abominations are these" when I came back to Korea after studying abroad.

Actually I still do that when I look at Korean Pizza Hut https://www.pizzahut.co.kr/menu/pizza/pizzaList/B02

It's hilarious that KFC Korea had to abandon its original chicken in favor of Korean-inspired Hot and Crispy Chicken cause it's like, going against the very premise of KFC.

I haven't had KFC in a couple of years, I go to (mostly Chinese owned and operated in Chinatown) Popeye's instead. I think their chicken tastes better.

And Korean Fried Chicken is boss, just wish I didn't have to go to Manhattan every time I'm craving some.

American-Chinese food is my guilty pleasure, since I feel like such a bad Chinese person when eating it, especially the more stereotypical dishes with no basis in actual Chinese cuisine. Or when I get chicken wings there. Noodles and dumplings and fried rice are ok though. None of the General Tso's or whatever though. It's one of the reasons I avoid Panda Express now that they've opened stores here in Brooklyn: whenever I walk by, I never see any Asian looking dudes working or eating there, it's explicitly "Chinese" food for and by gwailo.

But still, it paid the bills, since my dad used to run 3 of them. I loved when he cooked for me there when I helped out there in the summers. That was before he sold them before to focus on laundromats insteadNow my family runs 4 of those. Yes, we are a Chinese stereotype.

I remember once a couple years back when I was at my favorite hole in the wall but explicitly popular and written up in tourist guides and online Chinese noodle and siu lap (Cantonese barbecue) restaurant in Manhattan Chinatown enjoying a plate or bowl of noodles or rice, I forget which, when a man from a large Hispanic party at a table behind me loudly asks "They don't have sesame chicken? What kind of Chinese restaurant doesn't have sesame chicken?" Wanted to yell at him "An authentic one, you ignorant gwailo!"

Anyway, idol food chat!
