Went to a Korean barbecue place last night. First time I've ever been there, first time I've ever been to that part of town, it was the end of the night so we were the only people there trying to figure things out. We apparently managed to do everything right, but we were really unsure if we were the entire time until the check came. We did however manage to accidentally upgrade to the premium meat options but it was totally worth it.
