Mingles
Gangnam-gu·$$$$
Mingling Pot
KRW350000.00
Seafood broth with concentrated umami from dried seafood, vegetables, and fruit.
Tip: This is the centerpiece of the tasting menu — one bowl encapsulates the restaurant's philosophy on fermentation and umami building.

Han Il Kwan
Gangnam·$$$
Traditional Galbitang
KRW15000.00
Beef short rib soup with a deep, rich broth built from ribs simmered for over 10 hours.
Tip: The soup base gets richer and deeper than most competing galbitang restaurants because of the long braise time. One bowl is enough for most people, but the set meal format means you'll get rice and side dishes too.

Restaurant San

Dwaeji-gukbap with Caviar
Traditional Korean pork and rice soup refined with caviar instead of salted shrimp—a signature reinterpretation.
Tip: This dish exemplifies Chef Jo's philosophy—it's comfort food refined. The caviar finish surprises and delights in equal measure.
