Inspired

Blog buddy Kevin (aka the Big Hominid) posted yesterday about a hamburger he mostly enjoyed at one of the on-campus eateries at the university that employs him.  Now, it was not just any hamburger mind you, it was an egg-a-burger!

I’ve been a fan of this particular culinary delight ever since my first purchase from a street vendor one long ago (and drunken) night in Itaewon.  And now that I’ve acquired a Korean wife I can enjoy them in the comfort of my own home.  Like today for instance.  When Jee Yeun asked me if I was hungry I immediately thought of Kevin’s post and responded “egg-a-burger!”  Through the miracle of the internet you too can partake in the creation (although sadly not the consumption) of this special treat.

Thanks for the inspiration Kevin!
