About Star King BBQ
http://starkingbbq.com is the only Korean restaurant to feature Piedmontese, and the only restaurant in Greater Los Angeles to serve the Tomahawk Rib Eye. The servers, or you, grill the beef, and Star King BBQ’s other cuts, in their spacious, woodsy dining room, in a smokeless grill on the middle of tables large enough to share. A server presents the beautifully arranged raw beef on a platter, along with onion and mushroom slices before grilling. When the beef is almost cooked, it is pulled off the grill and sheared into smaller pieces, and then finished off to your individual taste.
The kitchen offers a choice of refreshing, light, healthy appetizers. They also carefully prepare an array classic banchan for you, a choice of vibrant, colorful, delicate little seasonal side dishes (fresh, fermented or cooked to complement, not overpower the meat. 
At each place setting, in addition to is a pair of chopsticks (or knife and fork if desired), and what distinguishes Korean from other Asian tables, is a long-handled flat metal spoon for the silky soup to finish your meal.
Add refreshing, fruit shoju to the water and barley tea beverages, and you have a party with the best of “street eats” (your food grilled in front of you) and fine dining at a traditionally set table.
Eligibility Requirements
To thank our host, you must produce a post experience article or be active on social media during the event. IFWTWA dues must be current and your IFWTWA profile up to date. Linda will pre-screen candidates. Final approval comes from BBQ King’s PR rep Gerry Furth-Sides.
