By After seeing an article on the donut cheeseburger here, I had to try it for myself. Now, at first this seemed like an odd combination to me, but I must say, after eating it, I wanted more. You can find the donut cheeseburger for sale about 10 minutes away from Yongsan Garrison at Amapola Deli in Bangbae-dong, Seocho-gu, Seoul.

The donut cheeseburger, originally named the Luther Burger, was a hit in the U.S.. The owner of the deli told me that he had decided to sell the donut cheeseburger after reading about it on the web. The donut cheeseburger has a Krispy Kreme glazed donut cut in half with bacon, cheese and hamburger meat sandwiched in between.
The deli was packed full of customers waiting over 30 minutes to get one of these 1000 calorie burgers and according to a couple of customers I talked to, well worth the price and wait time. If you have never tried one of these burgers in the U.S., I suggest you make your way to the Amapola Deli and try one, you won’t be disappointed.

I think I'll pass. My arteries started to clog just from looking at it.
I'll wait until public option becomes available in the US and then I'll eat one or 2 of these.

Hopefully, the right diet like this will fill out some of these repulsively tight-bodied Korean girls who have no respect for NASCAR.
Korea needs more multicultural influence.
None-the-less, this has been done before and it has been done better.

That they are porsperous enough to come up with dishes that are unneccesary/delicious/possibly fatal.

Uh, it's a Korean making them and his main customer base is Korean. What does this say about Koreans?
Tom, when you point, there are three fingers pointing back at you.

"Hopefully, the right diet like this will fill out some of these repulsively tight-bodied Korean girls who have no respect for NASCAR."
You forgot to ask how many of the 30 customers mentioned in article were American.

All the menus are in Korean and the pics show only Koreans so…

Wow, lard on top of lard! What could beat that? Maybe it needs mayo.
10:32 am on September 2nd, 2010 12
Or wait…butter with mayo!

Put some cum on it, that should finish off the toppings.

We save those burgers for KATUSA's Tom…

Hmm, interesting. Can't be worse than a deep fried Twinkie. I will have to make one of those this weekend.

When I was active duty nearing retirement it was hard enough for me to stay withing the Army weight standards, I wouldn't even have tried this thing. Now that I am retired it doesn't matter but a doughnut surrounding a cheeseburger just doesn't sound very appetizing to me. Does the whole f'ing world want to look like us fat Americans?

Tom… I think you missed your calling. You should apply to appear on next season of Cooking With the Stars… well, at least, Cooking With the Porn Stars.

"All the menus are in Korean and the pics show only Koreans so…"
…Pictures of the staff of the restaurant and three guys who appear to be loitering outside?
And you want my to believe staff couldn't possibly speak English, nor could Americans understand Korean?

Description says it already has bacon. Forgone conclusion on something like that.

I followed the link. Merely pointed out some of the signaged might contain a wee bit of English if a significant number of patrons were known to use that language. This would also be true if the staff knew English. Hell the staff may all speak Latin for all we know.
This was no indictment on Korean or American language skills, simply deductive reasoning. I know I could order off the menu, reading Korean is not a major challenge. Why he thin skin this evening?

I tried one of these the other day after reading about it on the ROKDrop, it was awsome. Thanks ROKDrop for my future weight gain…
