Han Oak

In Korean, Han Oak refers to Joseon-era traditional houses, defined by their careful consideration of the geography and changing seasons of the land they inhabit. While mindful of tradition and classical Korean flavors—many of them learned while aiding his immigrant mother in the kitchen—Cho's aim at Han Oak is less rigid adherence to the typical all-you-can-eat tabletop grill affair than to the articulation of the striking flavors.
