Chicken and Hof



In Korea they are crazy about fried chicken and beer. Ludacris would be proud. So much, in fact, that it is awkward and almost rude to not order beer with your chicken. Actually, almost everyplace where you can buy this delicious chicken advertises it somewhere on their sign or building. "Chicken and beer" They also call it "Chicken and Hof" Or is it "Hof and Beer." I'm not sure which one. I"m not sure what "Hof" means. I thought he was on Baywatch. Megan and I went to one of these fine establishments in the Kyungsung University area. This place was delicious. We watched some Korean playoff baseball at the same time, which pretty much destroys the MLB for entertainment value. But mostly, we people watched. In Kyungsung, there are all these tiny alley streets bustling with young college students shopping and clubhopping and whatnot. It is very entertaining watching all of their drunk styles. And also observing how people dress over here. Super sharp. Americans are some lazy ass dressers. All the young dudes here rock this extreme business casual style. While the ladies here are always in high heels it seems, but not really in the uncomfortable to look at way you will see girls on sixth street are back in Austin. I saw a lot of this working a pedicab. It gets old really fast.
