The 30-seat restaurant is compact, housing both an open kitchen and dining room. It’s been stripped down to raw brick and is furnished with salvaged pieces from Han’s personal collection. This place, like Han’s other restaurant, deals in dirty, greasy snack foods – mind you, not snack-sized foods. Unlike Oddseoul, this place doesn’t major in Korean fare, but rather Japanese flavours and techniques presented in an unabashed and hulking American style.

The kitchen is open nightly until 2am (with the exception of Sundays when they close) slinging raw plates of Hamachi tartare dressed in sweet chili ponzu and wasabi oil tossed with shiso, pickled shallots, and cubes of avocado. Nori, fried shallots, scallions and fresh cilantro finish the dish adding contrasting colours and textures.

A whole cluster of enoki mushrooms in tangy ponzu sauce is served sizzling in a skillet with a knob of miso compound butter on top. Miso plays prominently throughout the menu and it gives many of the dishes, including this one, a lovely balance of sweet and savoury flavours
