You might remember my transcendental experience at a new Korean restaurant called Sobahn. I raved about it in a post last month that you can read right here.  Several of you have told me personally that you have eaten here and enjoyed it as much as I did. Some of you have become regulars.

Tonight Cheryl and I took our breakfast club to Sobahn for dinner. When they heard me go on and on about this place, they voted to skip breakfast this month and have dinner there instead. We invited Sam and Helen Kim to join us and we all had a blast! Once again we did not order off the menu, but allowed the chef to fix us a several course meal of her choosing. Great decision!

Everything we had tonight was different from our first experience, yet every bit as tasty and exciting. The owners’ daughters did a wonderful job of explaining each course to us. The evening’s offerings included traditional Korean dishes as well as some Asian fusion. I love it when nothing tastes like what I expected and yet I am always pleasantly surprised.

This family run restaurant is truly amazing. These are wonderful people and they make you feel right at home. If you haven’t been yet, put this at the top of your list of things to do.

  1. Sobahn is on my to do list and I have one for yours. Its the Kyoto Japanese Steakhouse at I-70 & Noland Rd in Independence. Cannot recommend it enough.

  2. Thanks, Lee. I’ve been to Kyoto and you are right.

    Since reading your prior post we’ve been planning to visit Sobahn soon. I’ve tried cooking Korean food a number of times (usually bool gogi or kalbi, the common “Korean BBQ”) but I have very little to gauge it against…will be visiting this restaurant soon!

  4. You won’t regret it!!!
