There was recently a discussion on a TV food show about what you'd like to eat for your last meal. One guest put forward the suggestion for 'pork and soju', and I found myself nodding in agreement.
It was an interesting topic. I got to wondering what my family thought, so I posed the question to them. Some of the answers came out of left field, while others were more predictable. For me, my hands down favorite food pairing is pasta and red wine. The combination is my comfort food, whether I'm happy or down in the dumps.
