Question: What do you do when you grow up in the upper Midwest where there is no opportunity to try Korean BBQ?
Answer: Move
Note to self: I wish global warming would hurry up so I can move back to North Dakota and open a Korean BBQ joint.
Hobak is about as good as any Korean BBQ you're going to find in the US, no doubt the quality comes straight from Korea in Hobak's debut into the United States.
The quality of the food is beyond good, which is something you can see from the very moment it arrives on your table. When you order the ribeye, they send you a whole steak - who else does that? Awesome I tell you.
I have been introduced to several Los Angeles Korean BBQ places in the past year, all the way from K-Town to the O.C. and not a single one of them can come close to comparison on the quality of Hobak.
