7 Seoul restaurants of top chefs in Netflix’s Culinary Class Wars, and how to get a table
The must-visit restaurants of finalists in the hit Korean cooking competition show on Netflix, and how to make reservations
By Baek Byung-yeul
Netflix’s hit cooking competition show Culinary Class Wars has garnered tremendous love not only from Korean viewers but also from the global audience, sparking immense interest in the participating chefs and where to taste their dishes.
The show pitted 20 established chefs, categorised as “white spoon” chefs, against 80 highly skilled but lesser-known “black spoon” chefs, who were referred to only by nicknames until the final round.
Throughout 12 episodes, their individual culinary philosophies, passion for cooking and mouthwatering dishes captivated many viewers.
For those interested in dining at restaurants operated by the participating chefs, reservations can be made through Korean restaurant reservation app Catch Table or Naver, a portal site offering all-in-one services from map search to reservations.
However, because of the chefs’ new-found popularity, securing reservations has become quite difficult.
