KOREAN CLUB
Friday nights are usually reserved for Koinonia. This past Friday was our small group outing at Golfland. Although we were both looking forward to going, we were afraid we'd get there way too late to make it worthwhile so we decided to pass.
Instead, we figured we'd just go home and rest (since we were again out of the house for 17 hours Wednesday night). However, my co-workers changed those plans by inviting us out to a Korean bar/club. We didnt' really want to go, but they gave me so much heat for saying "no" all the time that I felt obligated to go.
If you've never been to a Korean place like that before, the most interesting part is the button in the middle of the table that sends somebody running to your table almost immediately. This place was called "S Club" in Koreatown. Everything was WAY overpriced and not worth it, but the company was good. My co-workers ordered a $175 bottle of Petron tequila (it costs $40 at Costco), a $20 fruit plate, a $15 pork chop plate, and some other stuff. Plus, some of my co-workers friends bought a few packs of cigarettes (who knows how much they jacked up the price of those!) By the time we left, we had dropped $85 on the table to cover the average food we ate.
Needless to say, it was an experience. But one that we will probably never go through again. Next time, I'm going to Koinonia.
