As one travels outside the US and North America, no matter how open a person is to enjoying new and different cuisine, soon they long for a western-style meal. Years ago finding a McDonalds or Burger King was great. Luckily, today there are many options. TGIF, Outback, and Tony Roma are common in Seoul. I enjoyed this short article on Tony Roma and localizing some of their menu for Korea.
Korea Times
Tony Romas, the Dallas-based family restaurant with outlets all over the world, is beefing up their seafood and steak menu for this year.
Executive Chief Bob Gallagher visited Korea last week in order to give first-hand training to chefs at seven Tony Romas restaurants.
Gallagher, also the restaurant chains food and beverage director, made his tour of all seven outlets and demonstrated how to prepare new dishes.
Especially, he prepared a dish named Golden Pig ribs at the request of Korean outlets. This year is the Year of Golden Pig that is regarded as very auspicious.
Gallagher has served as Tony Romas top chef for 12 years and introduced such dishes as Onion Leaves, Tonys Sirloin Steak and South Miami Fried Shrimp.
