Experience Details

Not in a noisy marketplace, but in a cozy studio infused with the chef's personal touch, we await your visit.

We invite you to D.ATE, a 100m² private studio located in Wangsimni, near Seongsu-dong - one of Seoul's hottest places.

A chef with 8 years of experience at Michelin 1-star restaurant and five-star hotels opens this space for a small group of guests.

This is more than just a cooking class. It is a special journey where you share Korea's culinary culture and enjoy a thoughtfully prepared meal together with the chef.

- Premium Quality: One-on-one coaching by a chef with experience at Michelin 1-star restaurant and five-star hotels.

- Artistic Space: Every photo taken in your warm, wood-and-beige-toned space with European-style plaster interiors becomes a truly unforgettable shot.

- All-Inclusive: High-quality snap photography, recipes, and all ingredients are included, so you can come empty-handed and fully enjoy the experience.
