Skip the generic, factory-style food tours. This is an Engaging Live Dining Experience in my private, secret hideout—a space curated with my personal taste and heritage.
As a Seoul native with Jeolla-do culinary DNA (inherited from my mother and grandmother), I invite you to a table where food tells a story. Discover how I 'elevate' everyday Korean staples into Unique Vegan Creations using my family's secret sauce blends. This isn't just about eating; it's about meaningful moments—laughing, sharing histories only locals know, and enjoying a high-density social connection.

Took my European friends and we loved it

5.00I’m not vegan (and as a Korean myself), but I took some European friends here and it was such a great experience. Even as a non vegan, I loved the food, it was super flavorful and really satisfying. It wasn’t just a cooking class either, we got to learn a bit about Korean food culture and the stories behind the dishes, which made it feel more special. The whole place felt like a hidden gem, not touristy or crowded, and the host was really warm and attentive and giving very fun energy! Also loved that we got the recipes afterward so we can try making them again at home :) Highly recommend if you’re looking for something a bit different in Korea.
I was curious about vegan food and I fell into vegan food.

5.00I wanted to try something weird, so I wanted to try vegan food, so I went. There was some unusual food, and... The chef explained it with fun, and I had so much fun. Eating was a bad picture, but that's not easy. See you next time.
Vegan food heaven

5.00So this is an OASIS for vegans. I personally visited this place with my foreign vegan friend, and now she says she wants to come here again whenver she visits korea. Honestly, Korean food is not always easy for vegans to enjoy because we Koreans use a lot of jeotgal(fermented fish) and meat or fish broth. But now that i know this place, a vegan food heaven, i feel confident bringing any vegan friends here, and they will absolutely LOVE it!! The host creates whimsical and scrumptions dishes, plus she speaks English super well so no worries about miscommunication. And not only she provided us with a pleasant experience of delicious food, but also had us have brilliant time chatting with her. I feel proud of myself for finding this place and for letting my friends experience such a cozy Korean vibe. Definitey will visit again soon🩷
Fun and delicious course

5.00The vegan cooking course and traditional licquor pairing was great! Hemi cooks really well and explains why and how she takes certain steps in cooking. She's very creative in finding the real Korean taste while cooking vegan (like with fermenting and pickling) and makes vegetables the star of the show. That is challenging and she managed greatly. Next to delicious, the course was also just a lot of fun. We had an amazing experience!
A Truly Special Dining Experience!

5.00Amazing food! Hemi created a special spring menu for us, and everything tasted fantastic. She was incredibly friendly and helpful, always happy to answer any questions while she was preparing the dishes. Her insights were so helpful that they even guided us in our next city, Gyeongju, where she recommended some great vegan restaurants. We had four courses, and each one was unique. I’ll definitely try to recreate them at home. Would 100% recommend!
Definitely recommend!

5.00We really enjoyed it. Hemi is friendly and upbeat. The highlight was the collection of steamed veggies, and the dessert (I'll let it be a surprise). We got the full premium meal. Thanks!
Thank you for the wonderful and lovely time

5.00It was a nice experience. The host made the dinner exclusively for me. She explained the history of the foods and how to cook them. She kindly sent me a recipe of one dish later. I had a lovely conversation with her as well. She is a friendly and charming lady who used to live in the United States. If you are interested in experiencing local non-meat Korean dishes, this is the place you should go. Recommended!
Fun and yum

5.00Hemi was super kind and fun and the food was delicious. I had a vegan 6 course with different kinds of traditional liquor. I especially liked the pickled dishes which were made personally by her mother with 20+ years of experience. I can recommend you this course if you are vegan/vegetarian seeking traditional korean dishes and ingredients. This was definitely one of the nicest hosting I‘ve ever experienced.
