  • Many of you guys asked me to try out the McDonald's in South Korea and I was super excited as well. With burgers such as the Shanghai burger, I was expecting great things. After eating at McDonald's I also stopped at Burger King in Seoul and tried out some of the interesting items there.
    So here is my review and comparison of Korean McDonald's and Burger King in South Korea.

    Imagine working and thinking, who the hell ordered seven burgers? And then just thinking that it's a group of people this guy is ordering for, only then to watch him eat all of the by himself. You wonder who he is, how he eats so much, when you overhear him say to the camera, 'Time to go to Burger King!'

    Your story about why you love BK is quite similar to my story why I love pineapple pizza with pepsi. I remember that when my parents divorced, I was ten, we had to move to another town and my mom had cancer and no job, no insurance, and my dad didn't really pitch in to help. But every month court made him send us money so each first of the month we bought pizza, was our "abundance" day because the rest of the month was rather hellish in the food section. So I remember that there was a place named "pizza doble pizza" which sold two big pizzas for the price of one plus a big pepsi. The available flavors for the cupon were hawaiian (which is bacon, cheese and pineapple) and chicken+mushrooms... so that's what we got every month, once a month when we were abundant. Even to this day, when i'm feeling low on morale or "poor", I buy pizza+ pepsi and instantly feel abundant again. It's an awesome story, thank you for sharing.

      The Burger King next to my high school had 99 cent whoppers available for a “limited time” FOR YEARS. It was great. I’d go after school/tennis/cross country, grab two or three whoppers plus a small soda and sit there and do my homework and eat and drink soda for a couple of hours, occasionally swing by Thrifty’s to grab a 35 cent ice cream cone, and then walk home and eat dinner with my mom. Great time in my life. If I even look at that much food these days I collapse into a food coma after gaining 15 pounds.

      We have no unique burgers in the UK. There is only the chicken Legend which is just a generic fried chicken sandwich. The Deli range is unique to the UK only because it failed to sell in America.
      The only good thing we have is the banana milkshake and if you're in Scotland irn bru.
      Burger king in the UK is worse because they aren't as common in cities, but they are common in airports and service stations where they cost extra £££ and don't allow any offers. The last burger king I went to at Manchester airport cost over £17 for their biggest burger with chips and a drink. I could get 5 guys for less which I would if there was one at that time.

    McDonald’s Korea has made its popular “1955 burger” a regular menu item for fans of the classic, retro vibe of the meaty burgers, the company said this week.
    The burger was inspired by the one served at the first McDonald’s restaurant that opened in Illinois, U.S., in 1955. The premium burger is made with 113 grams of Australian/New Zealand beef, crispy bacon, fresh lettuce and tomato, grilled onions and the smoky sauce.

    Korea understands me. They POUR condiments on because Koreans apparently don't like dry foods. I'm the SAME way. My father was the same way. My mom would call it slop because we'd douse our food in sauces, mayo, dressings. The McDs in Korea make burgers like I special order them, with 2x sauce on everything. Doesn't matter. If it's Big Mac, I need extra special sauce, extra tartar on my Filet. Burger King, Wendy's and Five Guys...I ask for extra mayo and ketchup on everything. I've told some staff to "soup" it. I live by the code that lettuce was created as a vehicle for all my favorite salad soups, number one of which is Blue Cheese. I go through two bottles of Blue Cheese a month. One per head of lettuce. Friends look at me like I'm nuts. Family has looked on disgusted. I don't apologize anymore. The only thing I don't sauce is a beautifully cut ribeye. That needs only be broiled in garlic butter and I'm set. Wait, if it's COOKED with the butter, is the butter still sauce?

      Anyone who lives near multiple McDonald's, of course. It might be a chain, but there can be huge quality differences between locations.
      I have a choice of three in my area: 10 minute walk from home for one, one inside the WalMart I normally go to, and the third about 5 minutes away from that one. Wouldn't trust the beef from the WalMart one (cooked beef shouldn't be a dull grey without a hint of brown inside...), though they do decent McChickens & Junior Chickens. The default for salt on the fries at the one closest to me seems to be all the salt in the world....

    Brit expat living in Korea :) It's called the 1955 burger because it's meant to be how an American McDonald's burger was in 1955, how accurate it is I have no idea. McDonald's came to Korea in 1988 (in 1960 it was the poorest country in the world in GCP per capita, so no McDonald's!). If you want some really good Korean food after that travesty (which is designed for kids and drunk people, just like the USA), go get some jjimdak! Or 찜닭 in Hangul. It's my favourite meal by far in Korea after living here nearly 2 years, it's steamed chicken with vegetables and glass noodles and an amazing sauce, best for sharing but you could destroy a two person meal. Make sure to get it boneless and with cheese! That's what makes it. Hope you see this!

      The answer to the 1955 burger is when the first big mac was created.

      According to my grandma in 1955 cheese wasn't a default burger ingredient.

      No. I've only heard about him. Apparently his Korean is very good but his character is very off-putting or strange for westerners. But like I said, I've never seen him :p

      Try digestive enzymes! Also, I do bloat after a meal like that, but I don’t care to much, it is just water retention and some food in my system. Next morning I am fine.

    I’m so impressed how you can still remember the names and can tell the differences of the burgers even after you removed the wrappers bc I’d be so lost and confused which one is which lol

    Questions:
    1) How do you eat so much?
    2) How is that food not making your skin break out?

    • @ahnaftech

    • @mines2680
      @mines2680 4 года назад +13

      Your skin breaking out is all about genetics first. There's the answer.

    Watched this because I live in Korea. It was great to watch and spot on for the most part on your descriptions. Not a fan of any of the bulgogi stuff here and I'm glad you didn't particularly endorse any of them compared to the other more interesting Burgers found in Korea. Easily my favourite part of the video was when you mentioned the 5 Whoppers for 5 bucks back in the day. Totally brought a happy smile. Thanks for sharing. I'll try to watch more.
