Where to Find the Best of the Luxurious Gastronomy in Seoul?

Chef Kang Min-chul draws immense pride and passion from his experiences with master chefs, forging his own path in the culinary world. His namesake restaurant embodies his culinary philosophy, offering a menu that reflects a kaleidoscope of diverse flavors typical of refined French cuisine.

Although the restaurant's space is limited, making reservations challenging, guests who manage to secure a table are guaranteed an unforgettable dining experience. This intimacy adds to the unique atmosphere of the place, where each dish served is a testament to the culinary excellence pursued by the Chef.

The inspiration from French techniques is evident in every dish, but Kang Min-chul also incorporates elements that recall Asian culinary traditions, thus creating a gastronomic dialogue that transcends traditional culinary boundaries.

Tucked away in the quiet neighborhood of Dongbingodong in Seoul, Zero Complex, led by Korean chef Lee Chung-hu, offers an enthralling fusion of French cuisine and Korean classics. The dishes, inspired by the chef's preferences but treated with a French twist, promise a renewed culinary experience in this unexpected setting.

The intimate space of the restaurant, located on the 3rd floor of a building named 'Picnic,' stands out for its clean design with spaced white tables and wooden chairs, creating an atmosphere that mirrors the simplicity and creativity of the dishes served. Each meal is an opportunity to explore minimalist dishes centered around a single main ingredient, often a vegetable or herb from their greenhouse.

Zero Complex is also renowned for its food and wine pairings, featuring natural wines that perfectly complement an array of inventive dishes based on seafood and herbs. Do not miss the popular fish steak, enhanced by herbs from the restaurant's garden, providing a visual and taste experience as impressive as it is refined.
