We went shopping in Myeongdong on Saturday and the taxi driver dropped us off right in front of Pizza Hut. Michael was feeling nostalgic for some American fare and I wanted pizza, so this was perfect for us. We were told that prices here were pretty cheap, but I thought they were a bit steep. We paid 18,000 won for a small "regular" sized vegetarian deep dish pizza and two Pepsi Lights.
The pizza was pretty good, not incredibly oily like normal Pizza Hut. It was a real treat to eat green peppers, I haven't had any for a couple of months!
We shopped around for a while and went in to Cold Stone (conveniently located across the street from Pizza Hut and next door to Baskin Robins). The ordering process is a bit different. You first go in and look at a menu and order. The "waiter" yells your order to the guys at the counter and they make the ice cream. Then the "waiter" gives you a spoon and hands you your ice cream when it's ready. The menu items are similar to the states, except there is a whole section of the menu devoted to green tea ice cream, of course!
Michael ordered Cheesecake Fantasy, which disappointingly for him, did not actually contain any cheesecake. It did have strawberries and blueberries in it, which I thought was pretty yummy.
I ordered the I'm Berry Pine. It's yogurt with graham cracker crumbles, blueberries and pineapple chunks. It was delicious, although it was 3,900 won for this cup, which would be considered the child size in the US.
After our stop for ice cream, we wandered around a bit, looking at the plants that seem to have sprung up overnight.
