The day: Any day
The location: Itaewon, a block off the main strip, down past the police station
The subject: Uncle Kim's Burger, amazing
While my friend Max looks like he's alone, there were six or eight customers ahead of us, and a similar number behind us, all after Uncle Kim's special burger--a late night treat unique to Itaewon!
Frankly, it's not even an all-beef burger--I'm not sure what it is, and Uncle Kim isn't saying--but it is a tasty treat fer shure for Itaewon's late-night denizens. Check it out!
That's a white bread bun, grilled; one egg, over hard; one slice yellow cheese; one slice zucchini; chopped cabbage; ketchup and mustard; seasonings; one patty Uncle Kim's special burger.

My boyfriend loves this place. He calls it the "junk burger" cuz "uncle Kim's" sign is new, it used to just be a nondescript cart on the street. Always a good stop before going home from Itaewon!
That man has got to have a story.
Hi Tuttle ... I happened upon your blog and wanted to know if you could give me some help. My daughter has signed a contract with "Willy Campus" and is coming to Kangsugu, Seoul soon. I've got a bunch of questions and hoped you could help by answering some of them. If you get this, I'm at barb@oregon.com. Would GREATLY appreciate an email from you so we could get some insight into a few more things before she comes. Thanks soooo very much in advance... Barb
Uncle Kims Eggy Burger was second to none!
