Jeombongsan Sanchae - Sokcho-si

I was praised by eating. I love Korean mountain vegetables and this place was a horn skin. use cocoa taxi to get there. *when back to enjoy it again and it was closed. call them before they go or it's an expensive taxi ride for nothing. would be five stars, but on three.

We wondered around in the rain in Sokcho for ages without any luck finding a place that could make us something vegan. So we hopped in a taxi to this restaurant we heard about in a blog and we’re very glad we did. Food was excellent and had a unique taste. It was difficult to understand what each dish was but the majority of it was really delicious. We had the Bibimbap for 15000 each. The VIP meal would be suitable if you’re really starving for 30000 each. I think it says you need minimum 2 people to order either of these options. The sweet drink to start and the coffee to finish were delicious too. This was our favourite meal of our trip to South Korea. The staff members spoke a little English and all were very welcoming. Taxi ride was around 9000 each way from Sokcho, not sure if there are buses. Staff were happy to book taxi back for us. The Korean name is 점봉산산채, which is also on Google Maps.

Located next to a golf course a bit out of the way but worth the trek there. Delicious food and new flavours. We opted for the VIP meal and tea, totally worth it. We left full and happy. The service was amazing friendly and spoke to us in English.

It is definitely the best vegan dish i’ve ever had in my entire life. The owner chef is Korean traditional wild herbs researcher, she has been cooking Korean traditional food for more than 35years. There are different kinds of course menu and i ordered basic course which costs 15,000krw (around 13usd). Enzyme drink, soup, more than 10kinds of banchans (small dish) included. You can make your own Bibimbap with different wild herbs! As a Korean i thought i am already quite familiar with Korean wild herbs but there were so many new ones with special effects which i’ve never heard of. I went there with my Korean Medicine Doctor friend and he said these ingredients are very precious and often used in Korean traditional medicine. Staff, the son of owner chef, was amazingly friendly too. He kindly explained the effect of each ingredient everytime he was serving. This place apparently is already famous amongst food researchers and foreign chefs but not to vegans yet although most of dishes are vegan. I am not related to this restaurant. I am just posting this because i was so touched by their food. I’ve added this place to Happy Cow. it’s quite faraway, (it’s near Seoraksan, Sokcho area) but if you have any chance to visit nearby, guys you should absolutely try this place!

I have to start forging wild things while I go! that was a great meal. they have at least in the rule 2 people, but he allowed me to dinate as 1 with an amazing variety of life means. I love unique places. I said I was vegan and they insisted that they would give me only vegan dishes. the sort was interesting and the taste was very good. I was stuffed when I left, but I felt a bit light an hour later. not hungry, just totally digested.
