Very interesting.  I stayed at a Korean hotel and was quite astonished
about my breakfast: several sorts of Kimchi, rice (of course), fried,
stired egg with ketchup, fried fish, white cabbage (with ketchup),
fish soup and warm or cold water.

But no grease, that's right!

But hey, I like to eat unusual things... :-) Actually, I loved the
Kimchi.  The only thing: no black tea anywhere.  Seems to be extremely
strange to drink black tea in Korea.  Of course, there were thousands
of sorts of other tea, but I had to go to at least five shops and ask
to `hong cha' with my horrible accent, having to repeat several
times. :-) I'm really addicted to black tea.

<having a sip now...hmmm...almost cold, though>.
