How did they manage to confuse the words “Perkins” and “Beijing”?
I love Korean pancakes. Can’t remember what they’re called, but they are yummy.
Korean Pancakes = Pajeon
I’m thinking maybe Beijing should consider investing in some pancake batter and maple syrup. $5 pancake breakfast special!!
MAN I can’t wait to get old… just to mess with people.
Beijing is soooo good! Love going there to score some quality grub.
Once in San Francisco’s China Town my Dad asked for coffee. The waiter told him they had chinese coffee so my dad ordered it. When it came to the table my dad said, “Hey this is just tea.”
Miss you Dad!
When I was in San Francisco’s Chinatown the only other white person on a block I was walking looked at me with disdain and shouted “Fuck you white America! I hate you!” I enjoyed that quite a bit.
