Hands-on Korean home cooking in Gangnam. Cook 4 dishes with Chef Naomi, eat together, and take leftovers. Vegan options available.
“It is quite easy to locate the place from Gangnam station. I was 10 minutes late for class and the host Naomi was very welcoming. I have my own set of cooking tools, the process were all hands-on. The host also introduced me to several different types of local Korean sauces and condiments and let me take photos of them for record. At the end of the session, I was treated to a hearty meal that we made during class. Noami even treated me to their seasonal fruit, the Korean melon which was so sweet and delicious.
