Two words: Go now. Not because the tofu soup is fantastic. It’s really good, mind you, but they’re giving the kind of service that will leave you smiling about the whole experience of eating here. Six months from now, it might be more pedestrian, so I’m tapping rapidly on the ‘go now’ button, for those I can offer a suggestion to.
Tohdam is behind the stairs.
Terrific banchan.
They offer interesting extras, such as this mung bean pancake. It was crunchy, with plenty of green vegetable bits.
They serve a good tofu soup.
On a scale from one to 5, I’d rate the silky tofu soup, banchan, purple (brown) rice, extras, about a 4 out of 5. Service is a 5+ and that’s what I find exciting about this eatery. It’s in a small ‘C’ shaped mall anchored by an Assi market, and is a little out of the way. I had dropped my daughter off at Japanfest and was looking for a place to eat. I ended up catching the Tohdam sign out of the corner of my eye.
To note, this is the third version of this eatery. There have been 3 chef and owner changes. Staff told me they had been open 8 days when we ate. As Chloe noted on Twitter:
@FoodNSnellville It’s the 3rd incarnation. Chef+owners change each time. Gets better every time.
I never did get to the other versions, but this one should be on the tofu soup short list of everyone from Duluth to Buford.
