The longest road in the World: The Panamericana Route which begins in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska, and stretches all the way down to Ushuaia, Argentina. All in all, the road covers 30,000 km (19,000 miles)

Except for the notorious Darien Gap, in which no roads exist. https://www.themanual.com/outdoors/darien-gap-feature/

My older brother spent two years in South Korea while in Army.  He loved it.  I thought he might stay

I think, with some exceptions, any "touristy place" will not have good restaurants.

well, it will certainly draw many restaurants, because many hungry people

doesn't mean there can't be some VERY good restaurants

Well if they'd let me eat over the sink I wouldn't have to settle for these touristy joints

I think a restaurant in a touristy spot doesn't have to be good to succeed.  They get plenty of foot traffic anyway, so they can be mediocre, or decent but expensive.  They don't rely on repeat business.  I found this to be true in Paris, though there are some good places in TS, but they are expensive.

We stayed a couple nights right on River Walk and I don't recall finding a place nearby that was notable.  They can be decent, but I have better success "around the corner".
