Foodies Look Here: The Michelin Guide to Seoul

For food lovers travelling to Korea the first ever edition of the Michelin Guide to Seoul has been released.

The new guide brings together a selection of the best of all cuisines with every establishment chosen first and foremost for the quality of cooking.

Two restaurants awarded three stars are Korean cuisine restaurants Gaon and La Yeon. La Yeon on the 23rd floor of Shilla Hotel was named in the Best 50 Restaurants in Asia in 2016.

Other contemporary Korean restaurants in Seoul like Jungsik and Mingles are well known for their innovative cuisine and the blending of traditional Korean ingredients into modern contemporary dishes with unique Korean flavours.

Jungsik also made it on to the Best 50 Restaurants in Asia list in 2016 and executive chef JungsikYim also has a restaurant in New York. Mingles executive chef Mingoo Kang trained under Martin Berasetegui in San Sebastian, Spain, and later enjoyed stints at Nobu in Miami and the Bahamas.

Korea is a hot food destination these days for food lovers not only for fine dining but also for all the variety of street food. Specialty one-dish restaurants serving Samgyetang (whole baby chicken stuffed with ginseng and glutinous rice simmered slowly for hours) and Mandu (Korean style dumplings served with kimchi) abound.
