Adventures of Living Abroad- At a Sandwich Shop in Seoul

On Wednesday, I went to a sandwich shop similar to a Subway or Quizno's, although the main thing on their menu is coffee. The place is called Latte King. A nice middle aged Korean woman (ajumma) greeted me and asked me in Korean what I wanted to order. I told her that I wanted an Italian Chicken sandwich. Then I asked her in Korean ("어떤 소스 있어요?" or "What kind of sauce do you have?") I told her three times, but she had this look on her face as if to tell me that she had no clue what I was asking her. However, she had a curious smile to go with the dumbfounded expression. I told her in Korean, "I'll write it down." Then when she realized what I was trying to ask, she pointed to the list of sauces right in front of me! This is why living abroad is awesome. Every day is an adventure!
