We had a great time with Hyeon. We had some amazing food with very interesting insights from our guide. The tour was very well paced, the little break in the middle with the museum was a wonde
rful idea. We learned and eat a lot. We couldn't have asked for a better guide.

P.s. There is quite a lot to eat, so I would recommend to eat very little to none before.

Our tour was great, Mi Hyeon took extra care to make sure our dietary restrictions were looked after, and also to go slowly to accommodate our children. She answered all of our questions about the food and culture. Highly recommended!

Mi-Hyeon was the best host as she was very knowledgeable in the local and traditional food within Jeonju - I had a great time trying different food! I would recommend this experience to anyone!

We had a great day on the Explore Korean Food and Culture with a local tour hosted by the lovely Mi Hyeon.
We met and then walked to the first restaurant where we ate bimbibap which was delicious. The food, like most restaurants, was cooked at the table but what set this restaurant apart from others was the array of side dishes.
From there it was a short walk to the Korea Traditional Cultural Centre which hosts, among other things, an exhibition of traditional foods and explains how, why and when they are used. It really gave us a great understanding of how important food is to the history of Korean people and their love of pickled and fermented foods of all kinds.
From there we wandered the streets of the markets samplings sweet treats along the way. Mi Hyeon could not have been more accommodating. She is a great storyteller and she loves her country with a passion.
I would definitely recommend this tour if you are at all interested in Korean Food culture
