Lotteria

Everyone has their own favorite fast food fix. Back home in Atlanta, mine was Taco Bell for drunk nights, and Chik-fil-A for any other reason. 

Here in Gwangju, we are somewhat limited for fast food (which could be a good thing for people like me). There is food that is "quick", such as Toast (a hot sandwich with egg, ham and cheese), Mandu (meat and kimchi filled dumplings), and Kimbap (think sushi with veggies and other things). And these foods are nothing short of delicious.

But, sometimes you just get the craving for greasy hamburgers and mexican food. [Un?]luckily, there is a Korean fast food chain right near my apartment.

Lotteria is as close to McDonald's as any of the fast food places I have seen in Korea. They have a variety of burgers (pork, beef, and shrimp) as well as french fries, mozzarella sticks, and sweet potato balls. Although it is no Mcdonald's or Taco Bell, it is the next best thing, and I am thankful for this little gem.

Oh, and did I mention they have ICE CREAM?!
