Now that 2026 is underway, we want to take a moment to look back and say thank you.
To everyone who walked through our doors in 2025 for everyday meals, quiet catch-ups (either with yourself or your loved ones) and special occasionsโ€ฆโ€จYour support is the reason Banchan continues to exist.

Weโ€™re also grateful for our staff who showed up day after day, often behind the scenes, making sure everything runs smoothly.

2025 was a full year for us โ€œbecause of youโ€.
As we move further into 2026, weโ€™ll keep doing what we have always done. We will keep serving good food with care.

Love,
Team Banchan

Cooking with Jโ€™Something was everything we love โค๏ธ Real flavours, real people, and real joy.
It reminded us why we began Banchan in the first place. Weโ€™re here to share honest Korean flavours, made with heart, with people who love good food and good stories.

Thanks for sharing your energy with our kitchen,
A special thank you to for making this collaboration possible and for supporting meaningful exchanges of Korean food culture in South Africa.

Hereโ€™s to more stories and more Korean food moments together.

05/11/2025

We started here in Parkmore almost a decade ago, as a small kitchen where our family cooked for neighbours and friends. Those early days taught us that food tastes better when shared, around a full table.

Jamie remembers how it all began:
โ€œWhen we first started Banchan, we lived just two streets down from our first location. One day, my father and I were walking along Elizabeth Avenue and saw a To Let sign. Instantly, we both knew that this could be the perfect spot for us.
Mom and Dad cooked in the kitchen, and my sister and I managed the front of house. It was really a humble beginning of our family business.โ€

As time went on, our family also grew โ€” marriages, children, birthdays, and countless shared meals all became part of Banchanโ€™s story. The restaurant grew with us.

Thatโ€™s where โ€˜Banchan is Familyโ€™ began. In a small kitchen, filled with hope and hard work. And of course, the sound of home.

๐ŸŠ Sweet, citrusy, and softly sparkling - Our yuja ade brings back memories of childhood visits to our grandmotherโ€™s home in Goheung, a region known for the best yuja in Korea.

We remember the scent of yuja in the winter air, warm cups on cold mornings, and the way our halmoni always had something comforting ready.

Served chilled over ice, our yuja ade is a little taste of those moments โ€” bright, gentle, and full of feeling.
