Born and raised in South Korea until 30th and move to UK is exciting life stage for me, except for the food. I was getting more disappointed whenever I went to a restaurant or supermarket. I felt food was not food anymore...
So I thought, what can I do to change it?
I opened my kitchen to teach how to cook authentic Korean food at home, which is something I always wanted to do since I was 6 years old.
Recently during lock down, I opened an online Korean food business. I am making the Kimchi and Korean food that I was taught by my mum and grand mum, who always valued the ingredients and do not play with them.
Your honesty will show on your plate and people will remember it!
By creating limited and small quantities of food each day, I’m able to pay special attention to highlight each ingredient’s purest flavour and use only the freshest ingredients.
I would like to share with you the most authentic Korean food that I have learn from my family and heal your body and soul.
