We'll be serving vegan Korean Corn Dogs (made with vegan dogs and vegan mozzarella cheese), Rice Balls, Korean Fried Cauliflower Bites, and you already know - Vegan Kimchi Mac and Cheese.

But wait - there's more! Since there's nothing better than a warm bowl of chili on a cold day - Chef Sim is debuting a new menu item - Plant Based Bulgogi Chili. That's right. Nothing says a little bit of Seoul to feed your Soul than some Bulgogi Chili, especially when ladled over some tots, layered with Kimchi Mac, chopped kimchi, green onion and vegan Kochujang Ranch! 🤤🤤

Meat eaters - Pull up too! Y'all won't miss the meat, but you will be full and happy!

26/08/2021

😩🤬😤....So Seoul 2 Soul is experiencing some generator issues...again. As a result, we're bummed to say that we will NOT do dinner service at the SmokeTree Community tonight from 5-7:30. Because as a mostly one woman operation - Chef Sim can't play mechanic/engineer and complete prep at the same time. 🤷🏽‍♀️

After being "mansplained" to one too many times while in the process of attempting to resolve the generator issues, Chef Sim would like to share some helpful generator maintenance routine tips - because Knowledge is Power. For more info, check out https://www.bigrentz.com/blog/generator-maintenance-checklist

Don't have a portable generator, and so don't think this doesn't apply to you? Think again! This preventive maintenance checklist is almost identical to the type of maintaince to pay attention to for your car!

So long story short - take the little bit of time to do maintenance (on your car, on your generator, on yo' life)! That time is well spent and will pay you back in dividends.

Seoul 2 Soul will be out again for dinner service in the Chester area on Monday. Details to be posted over the weekend.

25/08/2021

Happy Friday All! Seoul 2 Soul's been on hiatus for the past few weeks. We'll be coming back out to an event, neighborhood, brewery or University close to you soon starting in mid-July.

In the meantime, Chef Sim wants to get very briefly on her soapbox to bring awareness and attention to a worthy cause. Today, while handling some business in downtown Richmond, Chef Sim was stopped by a passersby who inquired about her shirt (pictured below).

After explaining the significance, the guy said, "Wow! How come this hasn't been reported more on the news? More people should know about this. I'll be looking more up on this because I want to know more. Keep wearing that shirt".

Last weekend we got to celebrate Juneteenth becoming a federal holiday, and next weekend marks July 4th. Two holidays celebrating Freedom and Independence, and yet, for the citizens of Myanmar, they are fighting to regain their freedom and independence from an unjust military coup that happened in early Feb.
of this year.

If this post speaks to you in any way, please consider visiting the link below to either make a tax deductible donation, or to purchase some of the gear that I've been rocking (as 100% of sale proceeds go to support medical supplies or food for thousands of displaced families in Myanmar). Every little bit helps right now in the fight for the people of Myanmar.

Well hello there! It's been awhile you say? Yes, yes it has. So here's to bring you up to speed in terms of what Chef Sim has been up to:

1) Since Chef Sim also daylights as a social worker in the non-profit sector, she's been having to practice a little self care to fend off burnout.

2) Fam comes first- Chef Sim from the end of March until just this past weekend set aside her Chef hat to instead put on a nurse cap caring for a family member who recently underwent major surgery.

3) Trying to make moves! Chef Sim has been in discussions with some promising prospects for folks to partner with Seoul 2 Soul as the first class of future owner operators. What does that mean? Email [email protected] to learn more!

4) Getting ready to take the truck out again, bringing Korean and Seoul Fusion to Midlothian! This Friday, April 16th from 4:00 - 8 pm or until sell out at The Grove - 508 Biggin Pond Road - Midlothian, Va 23114.

Vegan friends - we need to re-up on vegan cheese, so no vegan Kimchi Mac this time. But stay tuned, we'll have it once more once we get that cheez!

Bonus*. Pics from Chef Sim cooking it up to feed herself (and hungry family members) 😘
And random photo of Chef Sim's fur neice, Rhia 😺

Happy Monday and ! As a small, minority, woman owned business, we were pleased to be able to participate in yesterday's Mobile Soul Sunday as part of weeklong highlights of black owned food establishments. Many thanks to the powerful women behind the scenes of for organizing yesterday, and everyday of the rest of this week's events.

And thank you to everyone who showed up and showed out yesterday to grab some food from us, Jus Cukn, LLC and Poor Georgie's Bake Shoppe . Thank you all for your patience as we worked to push out great food for you to enjoy!

*Chef Sim, on the left, was feeling a little self conscious after cooking all day, lol. She's not trying to be antisocial*

04/03/2021

So, last week, Chef Sim did her first virtual cooking demo for Capital One employees hailing from all over the US, and some even joining in from Canada. Chef Sim shared the recipes for her well loved mac and cheese, as well as her delicious collard greens. In addition to making folks hungry during the cooking demo, Chef Sim provided some cultural education in addition to culinary tips.

For example, did you know that Mac and cheese, the ubiquitous, soul food, staple comfort food, was introduced to the US through Thomas Jefferson (but really cooked, evolved, and elevated through his slave cooks)? From the aristocratic halls of Paris, to the plantation estate of Thomas Jefferson, to eventually being made available to the masses thanks to boxed mac and cheese (powder, or noodles cooked with thick slabs of "gov'ment cheeze"), mac and cheese is a true culinary and cultural testament and tribute to the ingenuity and resiliency of black people in the US. From a dish initially only fit for the elite (and produced through slave labor), to a dish that, at one point served as survival food, to now being a (reclaimed)dish that is included in almost any soul food establishment, or family soul food meal as an everyday celebration.

Seoul 2 Soul looks forward to participating in this year's Mobile Soul Sunday (March 7th, 2021 from 12-5 pm) at the site of Devil's Half Acre, aka, Lumpkins Slave Jail. A site of historic significance and a reminder that yes, Virginia has introduced many great things to US culture, but also was a significant player in the slave trade in US history. This is not about guilt or shame; it's about knowing your past, to be grounded in your present, and prevent similar mistakes, or create new opportunities in the future.

So come on out on Sunday, March 7th, grab some delicious Seoul 2 Soul made Kimchi Mac and Cheese (Dairy and Vegan versions will be served), and join us in symbolically honoring the history and significance of Devil's Half Acre (1500 E. Franklin Street, Richmond, Va 23219).

You can place an order now and schedule for pickup at https://seoul2soul.square.site/

03/03/2021

**Update** Seoul 2 Soul's Menu for Mobile Soul Sunday (March 7th, 2021 from 12 to 5 pm) is now live. Order and pay online and schedule for pickup now at https://seoul2soul.square.site/

**Vegan friends** - We will only have a limited number of Cauli Bites - so be sure to order early and schedule for pickup early! To avoid cooking in the same oil as our chicken bites, we will cook the Cauli bites first in (new oil) and hot hold the bites. Don't worry, we'll warm them up in an air fryer! Again, to avoid using the same oil as our chicken bites, we'll not offer sweet potato fries, but will instead pair the caulibites with rice, or vegan Kimchi Mac.

Other than that, we'll have plenty of delicious options for everyone to enjoy!

So come on out to Devil's Half Acre on Sunday and get some good eats!

In case you aren't familiar with where Devil's Half Acre is located, just GPS 1500 E. Franklin Street, Richmond, VA 23219, make a left into the parking lot, and you should be able to find us and the other food trucks in that area. More details regarding directions to find us to come later this week!

01/03/2021

Squeezing in a short break from food prep

Happy New Year! We want to take the time to thank all of our family, friends and supporters who have stuck with us since our debut at the Richmond Mac and Cheese festival back in Oct. It has been one heck of a journey over the last quarter of 2019 getting Seoul 2 Soul up and running as a new business in the Greater Richmond Metro area. We experienced some highs, some setbacks, and have been learning and growing all along the way. For those who came out to support on New Year's Day at Ardent Craft Ales we thank you tremendously. We apologize for the long wait times to get food out to you, but we hope the food was worth the wait. We are working hard to continuously learn from our experiences and continue to improve and grow. Thank you for coming along on this journey with us to close out 2019. We wish you all much love, happiness, peace and success for the entirety of 2020 and we look forward to bringing you more food from S(e)oul to feed your soul ♥️.

Had a great time at the RVA Mac and Cheese festival yesterday. Thanks to everyone who showed Seoul 2 Soul mad love over our kimchi and bulgogi Mac and Cheese. And many thanks to the coalition of family and friends who all came together to make Seoul 2 Soul's debut a success! #teamworkdreamwork
