I was over at Lee Chunbok Tun a a few weeks ago and I ran into Brian and Whitney from Ansan Answers.   Brian had asked me via facebook for birthday dinner recommendations that he thought were fun and I recommended my favorite tuna place.

They mix pieces of crisp chicken and fried rice cakes in a sweet and spicy chili sauce and then layer in tater tots and top this with honey mustard. Here are the ladies hard at work assembling the Spicy Cup O' Chicken. Here is the finished cup. Just grab a toothpick and go for a walk. Location: Right down from the main entrance from Sookmyeong Woman's University.
