Combo #2


We went to see "Alice In Wonderland 3D" last weekend and ordered the world's most amazing combo, the "2 big beers and a popcorn combo", as our snack. We didn't even feel like drinking, but the option of having beer at a movie theater was just too cool to pass up.

Side note: In Korea you always have the choice of salty or sweet popcorn at the theater, and despite saying "ANIO SWEET" and making a big X with my arms when I ordered the food, we were still served sweet popcorn with our combo. In case the bag was "mixed", Mel picked through the top layer of sweet stuff to see if there was any salty popcorn in the bag too. Basically she ate some of the popcorn, licked her fingers and touched as many of the kernels as possible. The cashier must have noticed our sour faces while he was pouring our beer because he offered to give us salty popcorn instead. We said yes, of course, and he took the sweet popcorn that Mel had been finger-banging for several minutes, threw it back in with the rest of the sweet popcorn that would be served to other people, and off we went with the bag of popcorn we wanted (of which we got to eat about 1/5th of the bag because Mel spilled it all over the floor of the theater. And we'd worked so hard for it too!)

Note to local readers: don't order the sweet popcorn at Gangnam CGV. It's been pre-touched.
