MICHELIN Guide's Point Of View

Three Stars: Exceptional cuisine

[This is a new address following the restaurant relocation.] This authentic Mediterranean restaurant is a rarity in the Korean culinary landscape. Recreating bona fide Mediterranean cuisine in Korea is not an easy feat to achieve because of the scarcity of particular ingredients. Nevertheless, using purely organic ingredients grown on his family’s farm, Chef Jung Ha-wan has managed to present fascinating Mediterranean fare with authenticity and direction that reflect the region's culinary tradition. What drives Gigas forward and ensures gastronomic pleasure is the chef’s dedication to sustainability. How this restaurant will take on this challenge and grow amidst Seoul’s culinary landscape is something that sparks our curiosity as much as the pleasant dining experience it offers.

Gastronomy & Sustainability

MICHELIN Green Star

"The restaurant’s fare features exclusively organic produce, with 95 percent of it supplied from a farm directly run by the chef’s father and the remaining five percent from select organic producers. What’s more, no single-use plastics are utilized within this eatery. Food ingredients are stored either in glass or stainless-steel containers. If such storage is not feasible, high‐density polyethylene (HDPE) or polypropylene (PP) products are used instead as they are easily recycled. As described, the chef's meticulous commitment to sustainability can be felt in every nook and cranny of this establishment."
