Where is Osan Air Base?
Feel free to skip this section if you live in the Osan Air Base area or know about the area.
Osan Air Base is a US Air Force Base located in Singjang-dong, Pyeongtaek-si, Gyeonggi-do, South Korea. The area may also be called Songtan by both international residents and many Koreans who work with international residents. However, when people reference Songtan they may also be referencing Seojeong-dong, Jisan-dong, or parts of Godeok as well. Clarifying locations with exact addresses becomes important when sharing information for locations in this area.
What to Expect From Pasta Restaurants in Korea
Many countries put their own spin on international cuisines, so remember that your expectations of a dish could vary due to a Korean spin or fusion of flavors. Therefore, it is always best to try and keep an open mind when trying new places.
Garlic bread in Korea tends to be more sweet and may even have sugar on it. It took a bit to wrap my brain around the concept. However, when we first tried this we discovered that the idea of it was more off-putting than the taste. It is rather good, but definitely different from what we have experienced in the US. In addition, some red sauces might have gochugaru (spicy red pepper powder) added which provides an extra kick. So, if your pasta sauce or even pizza sauce has an extra kick, it might just be the Korean red pepper.

In conclusion, there is not a shortage of pasta options in the area for you to try. If you want to carb up on spaghetti, lasagna or other pasta, you just have to decide where to try. Many of the pasta locations also have pizza available, so if you or your significant other would prefer to have pizza while the other enjoys pasta, you are set.
