 | 	- Odd Seoul is a fucking joke. I mean that in all earnest, because I was laughing the whole time, I ate there. It didn't seem real. But it is. Unfortunately. It's a black hole that sucks hipsters in.  I was recommended this place by many people and I'm no longer friends with them.
When I first sat I looked at the gentleman to my right and though 'only douches opt for chopsticks when forks are more appropriate' ...but wait. I'm getting ahead of myself. 
First, drinks are served with gas station bagged iced. Square, and easily melty. This will water your already flavorless drink down. 
I should have recognized this red flag. In addition the drinks lack execution and even their descriptions are done to death. 
Second, I ordered the 'avocado slaw'. This was not a slaw by any standard but a pile of mixed greens who were overly dressed in sesame oil and sweet sauce. The dressing used is what white people think Asian food should be. Overly, nauseatingly sweet. Hidden within were 3 browned avocado chunks and a handful of carrot threads. At this point I asked for a fork and the waiter laughed 'we don't have any, I can bring you a spoon'. As tempting as eating a salad with a spoon was, I opted out and just discarded it, seeing as it was inedible, anyway. 
Third, we ordered the 'Loosey'. It's good. But if you replicate a Big Mac you aren't a star.   
All in all Odd Seoul wants to be an ironic dive but ends up being a total dud, defying flavor and logic.
