In Korea you can order pretty much anything to be delivered pretty much anywhere. For free. Food, beer, coffee, your shopping: You name it and there's a man with a scooter who will most obligingly bring it to your front door, or roof, beach, or park should you so wish. I have had pizza delivered to the classroom, park, the woods and the beach. I have even had chicken delivered to a seafood restaurant (some of our party didn't eat fish and rather than turn down all of the business the owner ordered fried chicken for us too), Beer delivered to the roof and all kinds of food delivered to my door. What's more there is usually no minimum charge and if there is it's usually only 5 dollars. There is even a coffee delivery service, although what is actually delivered is a pretty girl who makes "coffee". Yeah, you get it.
When you order food it comes in real bowls or on plates with metal cutlery. You are expected to leave the plates or bowls and cutlery outside your apartment door for the delivery guy to pick up later. Now that is what I call civilized! No washing up, no mess.
I am rambling about this now because I am hungry and I can't decide what to order... Korean, chicken, pizza, Chinese... Oh the possibilities.
