Muni (Korean: 무니; Japanese: 無二, lit. 'no two alike'[1]) is a fine dining restaurant in Seoul, South Korea. It specializes in Japanese cuisine, specifically kaiseki (multi-course meals).[1] It first opened in 2018.[2] It received one Michelin Star from 2021[1] through 2024.[3][4]
Its head chef is Kim Dong-wook. Kim fell in love with Japanese cuisine in high school, after reading the Japanese manga Shōta no Sushi. He graduated from the Hattori Nutrition College.[2] He began working in the kaiseki restaurant Kikunoi, under owner-chef Yoshihiro Murata. He also studied to become a sake sommelier: a kikizakeshi.[1]
According to a 2021 article, the restaurant reportedly attempts to emphasize seasonality of ingredients. The menu reportedly changes every month, and there is no fixed signature dish.[1] The restaurant serves an array of dishes from Japanese cuisine.[4]
