Tutoiement

French · ★ Michelin

₩₩₩₩

The name Tutoiement means 'to speak in a friendly, informal way', reflecting Chef Do-hyeon Kim’s desire to connect casually with diners through food. Interestingly, in contrast to this relaxed approach, the precisely cooked and sophisticated French cuisine engages the senses, placing the focus firmly on the food. The chef expresses the subtle flavours, textures, and nuances of each ingredient with care, plating dishes to highlight harmony between the components and their accompanying sauces. His cooking reflects a personal journey, guided by clarity of vision and a desire to create a dining ex

Jeongmyeon

Noodles · Bib

₩

Jeongmyeon, which translates as ‘noodles infused with meaning’, features an open kitchen and a seven-seat stainless steel counter. This one-chef operation serves meat-based noodle soups, with white and red noodle soups as the sole offerings, each boasting rich, layered flavours. The broths, made from seafood, pork, and chicken, reveal a deep, harmonious taste. Toppings—including thin slices of tender pork, onion, and red pepper—add texture and visual appeal. The red noodle soup can be customised to different spice levels and is served with a bowl of rice for added heartiness.

Mingles

Korean · ★★★ Michelin

₩₩₩₩

Bathed in warm tones and accented with contemporary artworks and refined tableware, Mingles embodies an elegant minimalism, its windows framing calm green views. Chef Mingoo Kang seamlessly weaves Korean culinary philosophy into a modern tasting format, using seasonal ingredients to build layered, nuanced flavors rather than overt showiness. Signature elements such as the long-simmered “Mingling Pot,” rich with concentrated umami from dried seafood, vegetables, and fruit, and the “Jang Trio,” a French-inspired dessert reinterpreting doenjang, ganjang, and gochujang, highlight the chef’s innova

Kyewol

Gomtang · Bib

₩

Located near hip Seongsu, this restaurant specializes in Korean-style chicken gomtang and has become especially popular with younger diners. Gently cooked chicken breast is served over warm rice with blanched young napa cabbage, then finished with a clear, refined broth for a clean yet deeply savory flavor. At lunch, diners can enjoy reasonably priced side dishes such as spicy chicken salad and torch-grilled chicken with doenjang, while cold noodles are available in the summer.

Jungsik

Contemporary · ★★ Michelin

₩₩₩₩

Chef Yim Jung-sik—with his Seoul and New York restaurants –is credited with introducing Korean cuisine to the world with an innovative flair that is entirely his own. What he does best is draw inspiration from the familiar, like gimbap and bibimbap, to create something innovative yet entirely authentic. Primary ingredients, from abalone to duck, make up his set menu which begins with impressive banchan; there’s also the option of adding supplementary courses. There’s an extensive wine list but the suggested pairings are also well-judged.

Korean · ★★ Michelin

Set in a minimalist space where modern technique meets Korean tradition, this restaurant offers a quietly compelling dining experience. The chef draws on two decades of experience to highlight the pure, delicate flavours of seasonal Korean ingredients. The meal begins with finely crafted small bites paired with traditional Korean spirits, followed by a main course served in a refined ‘doksang’ style. A dessert trolley appears at the end, bringing the experience to an elegant close. During the day, natural light fills the serene room, making it an ideal setting for business meetings or intimate

French · ★ Michelin

Chef Jang Myoung-sik has been welcoming diners with his confidently prepared French cuisine since 2006. The bright and airy second-floor room provides an intimate and comfortable environment, while the well -choreographed serving team ensure everyone is well looked after. The set menu offers a balanced array of seasonally pertinent dishes, all bursting with color and attractively presented. Korean beef tenderloin with dauphinoise and cauliflower purée is just one example of the clean, crisp cooking where the natural flavors of the ingredients are given room to shine.
