South Korea

It's been a month already?
August 4, 2008 - Seoul, South Korea
Ah, the savoury taste of raw stingray and raw garlic - oh how it lingers... and lingers in my mouth. No, I didn't order sting-ray, I ordered bacon and kimchi - a courteous man offered me a sample of his meal. I think he wanted to see a foreigner squirm and was surprised when I didn't. I didn't realize it was stingray until shortly after...
