Davide Cardellini & Hyungkyu Jun
Trained at the finest Michelin-starred restaurants in Europe and the US, Hyungkyu Jun and Davide Cardellini happily share their experiences with the blessing of their mentors, Massimo Bottura and Karime Lopez. Together, they have established a contemporary and empowering vision of Italian-Korean cuisine in Seoul.
One of the key figures in the new Italian cultural Renaissance is Massimo Bottura of three Michelin-starred Osteria Francescana in Modena. Granting Hyungkyu Jun and Davide Cardellini and the freedom to be expressive and progressive, Massimo gave his blessing to the pair, challenging them to be daring. With this in mind, the two have the support and opportunity to evolve, pushing both Italian and Korean cuisine to new levels.
