Solbam
Seoul, South Korea
Named after the hometown of chef-patron Eom Tae-jun, who returned to Seoul after training at the Culinary Institute of America in NYC, Solbam offers contemporary Korean fine dining that champions local, seasonal ingredients. The experience begins in the drawing room, where guests are welcomed with small bites in an intimate setting before they move to the main dining hall. A multi-course tasting menu features the chef’s signature dish of mussel extract, abalone and sticky barley, which beautifully blend texture, fragrance and umami sensations. Taking its design inspiration from an art gallery, the pared-back, white-toned dining room allows guests to concentrate on the food in front of them and to become more aware of, as chef Tae-jun sees it, the comforting power of nature.
