Hyangjeok Won 향적원 - Gyeongju

This restaurant serves them complete menus with all vegan dressed beautifully decorated! her Korean tempel cuisine also seems to be popular among Buddhist monks and nuns. they use seasonal ingredients, while they consume from the typical spices, garlic, chives etc. for me, it's most when in gyeongju.

This place is a great find on our day in Gyeongju. It is within walking distance of many of the main attractions and also right on the bus line so you should definitely get out there. The ladies who worked there are very kind! They tried to use their phones to translate the menu and food explanations to us which was great. The menu is in Korean and while my knowledge is limited we ordered the tonkassu set for 15,000 won and it was definitely good value. I've never had a proper fake meat tonkassu in Korea! We saw other people getting what looked like the more expensive set menus and it looked amazing as well!

We loved the food here. We were sure everything was vegan, but to be honest, sometimes we didn't know what we were eating and the staff didn't speak much English. Everything was very delicious (and sometimes spicy) and we had a lot of food.

This restaurant serves full course menus with all vegan dishes beautifully decorated! Their Korean temple cuisine seems to be popular also among Buddhist monks and nuns. They use seasonal ingredients, while refraining from the typical spices onion, garlic, chives etc 오신채 . For me, a most stop when in Gyeongju. :

Large vegan tempel eat only a five minute drive from bulguksa tempel. friendly staff, a nice selection of 반찬 and vegan kimchi (another review from the last year says different, but they didn't tell us any fish sauce so they might change their recipe? it did not cost definitiw and I can say in the rule the difference) they also do a vegan katsu curry tailored that looks amazing and I am very excited to try later.
