Tucked away in a back alley of glitzy Cheongdam-dong, Muni is helmed by Chef Kim Dong-wook, who started working in kitchens to make ends meet. To quench his growing thirst for knowledge in Japanese cuisine, Kim left for Japan to hone his skills, which would one day lay the foundation for this restaurant. To describe his style of cooking as textbook kaiseki is overkill, but his respect for tradition is evident, including in the way he utilizes seasonal ingredients and the way he plates his creations. The chef is a certified sake sommelier (Kikisake-shi), so ask for recommendations.
