The Round

Chef Kim Jeong-suk, owner of Cheongdam’s Yining and JS Garden,  recently opened The Round in a small building with a miniature garden. It has only been a little over a month since opening, but the filled seats  indicate the restaurant’s popularity. High ceilings and spacious communal tables allow for several people to sit together without feeling claustrophobic. Private rooms with abundant sunlight can be reserved and seating at the bar is available as well. The menu has plenty of dishes to choose from—the lunch course consists of two main dishes and three for  dinner. The price for a course is great for its value. Each course is very filling and within it, there are seven or more side dishes being served.  The only negative point is that the same course meal has to be ordered  for two people— forcing you to choose the same thing. Gourmet dishes, such as shark’s fin stew and Peking duck (cut right in front of you), can  be ordered here. Even the jajangmyeon will exceed your expectations!
