Aside from the sights and sounds of Seoul, it was also nice to eat some Western foods while we were there. Our first night we had pizza from this nice little pizza place in Itaewon. They had many styles to choose from and it was half-way decent. I had a "white" pizza, which would have been so much better if there was some garlic on it, but it was good none the less. The following day we started off with McDonalds for breakfast, since that's a pretty good way to begin the day. We then went back to Itaewon to do some shopping, which is for a future post, and we stopped at Taco Bell. Taco Bell might not be the best food in the world, but when you are halfway around the world and are craving something you are use to, Taco Bell isn't too bad. My favorite meal of that day was from this little pub that we found on the road aptly named, "International Restaurant Street" -- the restaurant was this little place with only about 7 tables, but the food was awesome. Amber had a grilled chicken Caesar salad, and I had a burger which was titled, "the ambulance". The ambulance was a slab of beef, with lettuce and tomato, a hash brown, and a sunny-side-up egg -- the combination might sound weird, but it was surprisingly very tasty and the items all went well together.
The following day we walked around some more and had another wonderful breakfast at McDonalds. This time, we tried to find On The Border, but failed so we returned to Itaewon and ate lunch at this place called Tomo Tio, which was a great little Mexican restaurant. Amber had a quesadilla and I had a burrito, and both items were very good. They had these chips that tasted like the noodles from a Chinese restaurant and they were really good with the salsa and guacamole. All in all, the food that we ate on our trip to Seoul was very good and it was fun to try out different restaurants along with visiting some of our old American staples that we do not get to experience in Daegu Korea.
