Cheongju date-night omakase bar, September steamed shrimp: Sinbakkase
Sinbakkase is a fusion omakase bar on Jinjae-ro in Heungdeok-gu, Cheongju, Chungbuk. On a weekday evening date, the omakase for two ran from abalone innards soup and bonito sesame salad through monkfish jiritang (clear soup), September-season steamed shrimp, cockles and scallops, aged flounder and sea bream, make-your-own sushi, beef yukjeon (pan-fried beef in egg batter) and grilled chicken neck with scallions, finishing with hongcho (red vinegar) ade. At 29,900 won per person for a course that runs from seafood to meat, Sinbakkase suits a date, a team dinner or a client meal equally well.
