I always imagined dining at a Michelin-star restaurant would be a sophisticated, unforgettable experience. At Jungsik in Seoul, it was unforgettable—just not in the way I planned.

Here’s the short version:
✨ The restaurant: stunningly elegant.
✨ Me: accidentally eating a moist hand towel because I thought it was a fancy marshmallow.

Oh, and let’s not forget the side quest to find the restroom, which led me through a dimly lit lounge that looked like a Bond villain’s hideout. Add in a few mysterious doors, a lot of confused glances, and you’ve got my dinner adventure.
