Looking for real food after hours? Sorabol is open 24 hours a day. You can’t miss the bright green building diagonally across from Walmart on Keeaumoku Street. We headed there for a family lunch since Brother-in-law 4 (BIL4) was home visiting from Korea, and Mother-in-law (MIL) was visiting from Maui.
I LOVE Korean food. Soon DuBu Chi-Ke (soft tofu stew) is hands down my favorite dish. So far my favorite Soon DuBus are at So Gong Dong (in McCully Shopping Center) and a surprise winner, the food court at Palama Market Kaheka (can’t beat the deal at $6.00)! If you love Korean food, you’ll love exploring the multitude of Korean eateries the Keeaumoku/Kaheka area has to offer.
Here’s the banchan at Sorabol, assorted kimchi and side dishes.
We shared HaeMool PaJun (seafood pancakes, $13.99) which comes with a dipping sauce.
Sorabol - Seafood Pancake ($13.99)
My Soon DuBu Chi-Ke ($9.99) with clams and enoki mushrooms. Don’t worry, it’s not as spicy as it looks!

SIL1′s KongBiji Chi-Ke ($12.99), a smooth and hearty stew of mashed white beans.

BIL4′s Kalbi Chim ($21.99), steamed kalbi.

Compared to some smaller neighborhood eateries, I’ve noticed the prices are slightly higher at Sorabol. I think the secret to Sorabol’s popularity is that it is always open, fast, and easily accessible. With its numerous private rooms, it’s great for families and large parties too.

ハワイにはなんでもあり、だね。韓国の料理もおいしそう！私は石焼ビビンバやチヂミが好きですよ。以前、うちの近所の韓国の人がやっている焼肉屋さんで石焼ビビンバを食べきれずに残したら「もったいないから、もって帰りなさい。明日フライパンであたためたらまたおいしく食べれるから」と言って残りをビニールの袋に入れてくれて、おまけにキムチも一緒に炒めたらおいしいから、とそれもつけてくれたっけ。
チヂミは粉が売っているから、時々それを買って自分で作ることもあるよ。ニラやにんじん、イカなんかを入れたらおいしいかったなぁ。
親切な店主さんだね。チヂミ用の粉が売ってるって何か特別の粉なの？小麦粉で作るのかと思ったよ。
