What kind of restaurant serves popcorn? Is that an SEA thing? You said below you get the sweet sticky kind, is it like a dessert item?
I believe in the eastern world, caramel popcorn is the "default". At least, it definitely is the default here in HK; I've never had salty popcorn until I was in the US.
I've been to a few that had some as starters/light snack options. One of the best popcorns I've ever had was at a fancy restaurant where it was just at the table before we even sat down.
I actually didn't know salty was the normal type of popcorn in the US until my 20s
I am from South East Asia and I can tell you that it is not a thing over here.
So am I, and I've been to multiple SEA countries and I've had popcorn in multiple restaurants. I'll admit, it's not common, but it's definitely a thing that exists.
Lemme guess, Philipine?
That is one SEA country I haven't been to
Dangit! They always got the weirdest food, that's why they're my first thought.
