Thanks for the heads-up; I'll keep an eye out for it. I'm embarrassed to
say it, but I do not have a single Korean cookbook! Maybe these will be the
one.

Btw, krnntp, I'll be heading back to Tribe Country in August. Is there an
outstanding Korean restaurant in town that you would recommend? I know that
since I left in the mid-80's, we've had quite an upsurge in the Korean
population. I'd be surprised if there weren't a great Korean restaurant in
town.

Hey, maybe we could even have a Cleveland A.F.A. BBQ get-to-gether or
something! I don't think you and I are the only ones here.

How about a web based almost cook book?
Try http://www.skynews.co.kr/main.asp--- English Column--Try Korean dishes
The dishes I've looked at are pretty close to what my ex-wife and her one
sister who lived in America would use for ingredients.
