"[Temporarily closed due to restaurant moving issue.] When Chef Sung Anh moved his Mosu San Francisco to Seoul, he wanted to bring a different kind of diversity to the table. Different as the food may be, Anh continues to do what he does best, highlighting the subtle nuances of seasonal produce on a plate. Burdock bark, the signature dish, features a single burdock chip prepared by coating a thinly shaved sheet of burdock root with syrup, dehydrating it, and repeating the process several times to render it supremely crisp. Enhance your dining experience with the wine pairings." - Michelin Inspector
"Seoul has you covered with Michelin-starred restaurants like Mosu, which artfully present contemporary cuisine through a Korean lens."
"Chef Sung Ahn opened Mosu San Francisco in 2015 and was awarded a Michelin star the following year for innovative dishes that built on his career in Japanese and French kitchens. But in 2017, Ahn closed the restaurant and permanently relocated back to his motherland to open Mosu Seoul, where he surprised guests with elegant dishes that creatively interpret Korean ingredients, like burdock tarte tatin, almond tofu, and hearth-grilled hanwoo. The high-ceiling space is cozy, the service is top-notch, and the prestigious wine program, handled by award-winning sommelier Jinbeom Kim, is the finest in Korea. It didn’t take long for Mosu to return to the Michelin Guide at its new location, attaining two stars in 2020." - Matty Kim
