"A Two MICHELIN Star restaurant in Seoul known for its contemporary Korean cuisine." - Nancy DePalma
"If you're looking to splurge, Seoul has Michelin-starred restaurants like Jungsik."
"Touted as a pioneer of modern Korean fine dining, Chef Yim Jung-sik — with his Seoul and New York restaurants - is credited for introducing Korean cuisine to the world with an innovative flair that is entirely his own. What Yim does best is drawing inspiration from the familiar — gimbap, bibimbap, platter of nine delicacies and napa wraps with pork — and creating something unexpected yet surprisingly evocative and authentic. Whimsical desserts, a good wine list and attentive service — Jungsik has it all." - Michelin Inspector
"Jungsik Jungsik is the home of celebrity chef Jung Sik Yim, who is updating Korean cuisine; he’s credited as the first chef to prepare Korean ingredients with molecular-gastronomy techniques. He’s done so well with the main restaurant that he’s also opened a bistro in Seoul as well as a restaurant in New York City . Try the pork belly, a delicious mixture of sweet, spicy and sour, all in a bite; if pork isn’t your thing, order up the sea-urchin bibimbap."
"Jungsik is the restaurant that put the fire in me for the first time. It was my first fine dining experience in Korea, when I was 21." - The MICHELIN Guide
