Broncos vs Panthers: Super Bowl Sunday 2016 in Seoul
My God, has it really been one year since Pete Carroll had the brain fart of the decade and blew the game for the Seahawks? This year’s matchup pits the old (Peyton “Omaha!” Manning )vs the young (Cam “It was a donation” Newton) and frankly, I think it’s not even going to be close. (More […]
Magpie Brewery in Gyeongridan – Birds, Beers and Pies
Magpie Brewery, named after the ubiquitous bird found throughout Asia, is one of Gyeongridan’s little hotspots for fine craft beers and surprisingly some pretty decent pizza. One of the only problems? The place is fucking packed! However, last weekend, ST and I beat the rush and headed down there right at 5pm on a Sunday […]

It normally starts with ten hours of pregame, which includes interviews from everyone on the team, including the water boy and […]
Meatballism in Gyeongridan – Big Balls of Meat on Hot Warm Buns
Update: Meatballism has either moved or shutdown. I miss their sub. 😦 Get your mind out of the gutter. Okay, so after another search for Revolucion Bar in Gyeongridan (which for some reason is like trying to find a sober Irishman on St.Patricks day) we stumbled upon Meatballism. On a nice, cold afternoon in Seoul, […]
Monster Cupcakes – Scary, Sweet Cups of Cake in Gyeongridan
There seems to be a “monster” theme emerging in Seoul. We have Toast Monster in HBC, Monster Pizza in Hongdae and now Monster Cupcakes in Gyeongridan. I’m really hoping for some Monster Ribs to pop up shortly. The southern BBQ craze is in full swing in the city, and it’s only a matter of time before four […]

Doughnut Plant NYC – Trans Fat-Free Doughtnuts in Gyeongridan. Can This Be True?

So after Holy Smoke, I decided to continue to fuck my heart by heading down to Doughnut Plant NYC for some dessert […]
