It makes the whole process of stir-frying easier. Not only is the shape better for stirring, but you can toss the contents in the air far more easily with a wok than wth a Western-styled pan. No, it won't make a difference in the flavor (unless you don't do a good job of cleaning it after use!); that's what the oild and spices are for. Any good Chinese or Japanese cookbook will give you an endless supply of tips. It'll take a bit of practice, but it's easy to get used to using. Good luck!

a wok cooks food much faster than a regular frying.you add the oil and let it get really hot and then add your food.
make sure you clean it real good after each use.

It looks trendy and you have a conversation topic while eating.
