sadly, you have to eat this with a fork and the cone gets all soggy because of the steam. it's an interesting concept, but not one that was totally thought out.

Thanks for the post. I think that most restaurants in the future will be using this sort of system. Hey, I think it would be cool if you could just order stuff from an ipod touch instead of the large console.

Heck, I'm not a vegetarian and I love going to this place. Robyn, I see you snuck off to a place without me.

I called it the model "T" because the restaurant is the most efficient noodle making/serving machine in Korea. The line moves fast, the food comes about 2 minutes after you sit and if you finish your bowl they'll refill it for free.

@Polecat. I think Robyn is doing a great job showing the gamut of Korean foods. Most people would not understand what Calguksu and patbingsu were and would just find it bizarre. I feel that by writing about fast food, it helps readers identify with the culture by giving them a point of reference.

Heya, It's what Dr. Yoon at the Institute of Traditional Korean Food wanted, so I stuck with it. I like the look of tteok more than ddeok. But hey, check out Robyn's pics! They are awesome.

Zen, It tasted pretty awful. In the Philippines, I saw a guy put corn ice cream on a hamburger bun; it does look as cool as the corn cob shell.
