City: Buenos Aires
Favorite home cooked meal: Choripan
“It’s just chorizo (sausage) plus pan (bread, usually crusty like a baguette or marraqueta). It’s so good.”
Favorite meal when eating out in Buenos Aires: Asado barbecue
“Asado is just barbecue but EVERY part of the cow is used. Like, damn, the first time we got it there was one piece that was odd-textured and white-ish…turns out it was just pure fat!”

City: Seoul
Favorite home cooked meal: Ssambap wraps with galbi
“Korean dishes are based on the seasons and time of day. For the summer, I love eating ssambap wraps (a dish of meat and rice wrapped in lettuce) with galbi (Korean barbecue). The lettuce is surprisingly refreshing and complements the slightly sweet seasoning of the galbi. For harsh icy winters, I love spicy soups that heat up the chest area like kimchijjigae or Gamjatang.”
Favorite meal when eating out in Seoul: ddeokbokki
“For those late nights clubbing in Gangnam or Hongdae, a quick stop at a food truck serving ddeokbokki (a soft, spicy rice and fish cake) and blood sausages makes the night complete.”
Name: Becky Sokolow (Senior, CAS)
City: Barcelona
Favorite home cooked meal: pretty
much anything over rice
“Sometimes I would sautée chicken in soy sauce and eat it with rice—pretty simple. Or I would make rice with some Spanish meat, tomatoes, cheese and guac if I could find any.”
Favorite meal when eating out in Barcelona: pan con tomate
“Spain has a lot of tomatoes, potatoes, seafood, ham and cheese, so I typically had plenty of dishes with those ingredients when I ate out.”
