Communist Nation

It appears North Korea has opened its first fast food joint in Pyongyang with the help of an ROK firm.

The restaurant — which serves such fast food as burgers made of minced beef, fish or vegetables — however does not call them “hamburgers,” Choson Sinbo said.

It the menu lists “minced beef and bread” or “minced fish and bread” or “vegetables and bread,” all served together with the Korean pickled cabbage dish, kimchi, it said.

The minced beef and bread costs 1.7 dollars, it said, a price exceeding half the average North Korean’s daily income. The communist state’s per capita income was 1,065 dollars last year.

I wonder if they will have a drive thru window for the non-existent cars. Perhaps they will have a walk-up window or a bike-thru. I am interested to see it.
