There are Korean restaurants that do all of the cooking in the
kitchen. Of the half-dozen Korean restaurants in my area,
only one features cooking at the table.

Of course, some of them are little more than diners, and
you can see them cooking from right across the room.
Or, in one case, right across the counter, since it
really is an old diner.
