"Buddhist temple cuisine, entirely vegetarian, opposite Jogyesa temple."

Balwoo Gongyang serves the temple food of Korean Buddhism: no meat, no fish, no pungent alliums, and nothing wasted. Course after course of fermented, dried and freshly picked vegetables, eaten slowly. One of the purest meals available anywhere in Asia.
