There's a place in Dallas called BB Bop and their fried chicken is fantastic. Its lightly battered yet incredibly crispy plus they're smart enough to have figured out not to put the chicken in a closed container that traps the moisture and kills the crispiness. They put it in a paper container inside a paper bag and it stays crispy all the way home if you pick it up or get it delivered
lol, agreed the food is excellent but they have three flavors total, extremely limited range of food, you got the cold noodles, the hotplate bbq, the hotpot/soup, fried chicken and the stuff that would be confused with sushi but you would get punched in the face if you called it japanese (the males break asian stereotypes hard and are surprisingly ornery/violent)
really only 3 basic flavors, all of which are delicious though
kimchi
soy sauce
spicy kimchi
that sums up the palate
this isn't a dig, i love their food, each it several times a month, but every time i'm in korea for an extended stay it wears out pretty quickly eating the same food and flavors every meal
south korea still an awesome place to visit for food tourism though, byob to the ballpark where they have cheerleader platforms spread out throughout the stands and you can order octopus in the park - hell of an experience
