60c is cheap for a corner store dimma, they usually run like 80c, and probably $1.20 at the footy.

I prefer Potato cakes, but variety is the spice of life when it comes to the delicacies of the bain marie

Shanghainese food IN Shanghai sucks for some reason. And I'm half Shanghainese.

xian jian bao is shanghainese right? i love those things. you ever hit up that 小扬先煎包 that little shop with the yellow sign?

i like eating Pizza Hut in shanghai. i pretty much never eat it in the US though.

[Pandemonium]

naw fuck dim sim man they are totally shit and fuck i hate them so much!

even at 60c i need to eat like 8 of them before i'm full.

[DJ_Flame]

I just know I like the 点心 from 鼎泰丰.

Fuck some dim sim. In Australia it's all about that dirty white boy food, sausage rolls, pies, potato scallops. I'm sure the continent has evolved from the dim sim to the point where they can eat more authentic chinaman food now, surely.

Koreans and fried chicken have a long love affair. In Korea, we've had all of the fried chicken chains except for Church's and Popeye's was most popular, so all y'all black people know what I'm talking about. We even had Kenny Rogers' Roasters for awhile.

Koreans love watermelon, going to other countries (or Jeju) to shoot guns... I think they have a special deal in Cambodia or something for Koreans where they pay $50 or $100 or something and they let out an assortment of animals like cows, dogs, deer, and they give the Korean tourists a bunch of gats and let them go at it. Koreans also like big bottles of beer, menthols, breakdancing, hip hop, cheap liquor, shiny clothes, makin stacks, black BMW 7 series and S classes on dubs, c'mon, this is a no brainer.

Yo what's other asian peoples takes on Mulan? Do we like it because it was the Disney movie that gave props to Chinese ppl? I personally thought it was complete shit, although a big portion of that is as fan of earlier classic Disney shit.

I ask because I was talking to a black chick about how they're "finally" having a black princess even though the movie looks cheap and retarded. She told me that I don't care because "they did Chinese so right with Mulan already." My first reaction was "bitch you must be kidding."

[headcoat]

Why are all non-Korean asians so jealous of Koreans?

[Guest jmatsu]

this is instant ramen. if dabestspooner had said "instant ramen/instant curry is peasant shit" i would have agreed.

[Guest jmatsu]

on the realness though, ramen historically, was infact peasant or humble food. not instant ramen, cause that shit didn't exist at the time.

today i do not consider conventional ramen to be peasant status.

[shimshimhae]

this is instant ramen. if dabestspooner had said "instant ramen/instant curry is peasant shit" i would have agreed.

like i said, i misunderstood. ramen always mean 'instant noodles' in korean.

[Guest jmatsu]

like i said, i misunderstood. ramen always mean 'instant noodles' in korean.

okay now i am seriously perplexed. so every "ramen" shop you go into in korea, and i mean a fuckin restaurant, uses oil/lard preserved base noodles? that can't be true.

[shimshimhae]

nah there's like other noodles but they have different names like

kal-gook soo, neng-myun, etc.

ramen is reserved specifically for instant ramen

[Guest jmatsu]

ramen is japanese. it's not my fault that you and other ignorant people liberally appropriated the japanese language and used it to refer to some instant preserved peasant dry noodle shit.

[dismalfuture]

okay now i am seriously perplexed. so every "ramen" shop you go into in korea, and i mean a fuckin restaurant, uses oil/lard preserved base noodles? that can't be true.

They do have several dishes here that use blocks of instant ramen, budaejjigae for example. The whole concept of that dish is complete peasantry. Koreans hate food.
