Suwaniye began as Chef Lee Joon’s well-known pop-up and now operates as a small, course-only dining room in Gangnam. The chef, who studied in France, pairs classic French technique with Korean cooking methods to create inventive, contemporary multi-course menus. The restaurant’s name — derived from a French phrase meaning to cook with care — was also Lee’s nickname while studying abroad. Lunch and dinner are offered as set courses; recent media exposure of sous-chef Kim Ho-yun has raised its local profile.

Local Tips

  • Multi-course tasting menus that fuse classic French methods with Korean ingredients
  • Casual yet trend-conscious dining space that evolved from Lee’s pop-up concept
  • Only set menus (lunch and dinner) — book ahead, especially after sous-chef Kim Ho-yun’s TV exposure
