The Taste of Success: Curry Katsu

So I am doing a language exchange with this guy over the Internet.  He is really nice and taught me how to say my address and how to order something when I call on the phone.

For those of you who have never learned a foreign language, this is far harder than it sounds, because you have to speak REALLY clearly, and listen for ANY question that could arise.  So I was really scared, but my language exchange buddy and I had just practiced it a few times, and even though I had already eaten, I went for it.

At 8:09, I made the phone call, and then got my 6,500 won ready (just like my buddy said), and then waited.  At 8:26, the restaurant called me to let the delivery guy through the security door.


Here is my first meal:


Curry Katsu

There is the green delivery menu that was left on my door last week.  It is where this all began.

There is kimchi, curry sauce, and cream soup in the small dishes at the top.  They give you real dishes and real silverware.  The delivery guy told me to leave the dishes outside when I was done.  I guess he will come back and pick them up. 

The cream soup was the best.  The curry katsu was pretty good too.  But nothing was more delicious than the taste of success.

  1. Congratulations! Kinda like "room service from a distance"! And "real" china and flatware certainly tops plastic and styrofoam!
