EnterTheVoid Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 I had a chance to go to South Korea last year, decided not to. Pay a visit to Tokyo tho, totally worth your time. Some of the best Mughal food you will ever eat are located near the Pakistani embassy. Give sushi a miss. Ridiculously expensive there, not worth the money.

Pioneer Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 I had a chance to go to South Korea last year, decided not to. Pay a visit to Tokyo tho, totally worth your time. Some of the best Mughal food you will ever eat are located near the Pakistani embassy. Give sushi a miss. Ridiculously expensive there, not worth the money. I would strongly advise against that, nothing comes close to the sushi I had there. Along with the street food. Actually, everything there tasted amazing.

velu Posted August 1, 2012 Share Posted August 1, 2012 Ever tried dog meat Velu? i heard dog meat is available everywhere, but no way i am going to try it.. my experiments in food stops with chicken and beef :asleep: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnterTheVoid Posted August 1, 2012 Author Share Posted August 1, 2012 I would strongly advise against that' date=' nothing comes close to the sushi I had there. Along with the street food. Actually, everything there tasted amazing.[/quote'] I found the sushi there to be astronomically expensive. I found the Mughal food there better value for money. The irony of eating Mughal food in Japan instead of local Japanese produce but thats a story for another day :winky: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EnterTheVoid Posted April 17, 2013 Author Share Posted April 17, 2013 So, after a 16 hour odd flight from my original destination, I finally arrived in Seoul, South Korea today early evening local time. The following picture was taken earlier in the day; packed our bags, checked our valuables and off we go: There is a lot of hysteria in the western world about a possible conflict erupting in the Korean peninsula. Here in Seoul, life seems to be going about as usual. At the airport, I did not see the mobilisation of any troops nor any additional security one would expect in light of the current circumstances. On first impressions, Seoul is a technical metropolis and is a good 20 - 30 years ahead of anyone else in the technology space. Will be exploring more of the technical aspects of this mega city in the coming days. More tidbits coming soon, stay tuned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you watch the western media, you could be forgiven for thinking people were stacking up on essential supplies and were hiding underneath bomb shelters On a side note, Korean girls are cute.
