About

A Buddhist nun runs this reservation-required restaurant, whose temple-style cooking uses seasonal vegetables and five kinds of seasoning. A 2023 diner described the meal as a fusion rather than strictly traditional Korean; the venue’s current listed menu contains oat lattes, an Americano, grapefruit ade, and magnolia tea.
