Haenyeo’s Kitchen Bukchon Branch (해녀의부엌 북촌점)

Haenyeo’s Kitchen Bukchon Branch was renovated from a fishing village warehouse and is a unique restaurant where visitors can enjoy meals while appreciating the media art in a 360-degree panorama. Only 14 people are invited to a table of dishes carefully prepared by 12 artists to taste a course meal of seafood collected by haenyeo (female divers who collect seafood). While dining, the customers are entertained with media art and a storytelling by a docent that depicts the life of haenyeo divers and their village. The four-course lunch lasts 80 minutes, and the seven-course dinner lasts 120 minutes. Unique dishes, such as shindari, the fermented beverage; sangwetteok, Jeju’s traditional rice cake; uyeongpat with bracken and bean sprouts; Nangpun Set Menu comprised of top shells, red tilefish, seafood wraps, steamed pork slices, vegetables, and other side dishes; omegi rice cakes, become special memories of the trip in itself. Admission is available for those aged 6 or older, and reservations are required.
