Description

A short trip to Thailand and a serendipitous encounter with a local cookbook changed the course of his life and set Son Seung-hee on the path to chefdom. Enamored with the world of Thai cuisine, he has since poured his passion into mastering it, and his culinary dedication has found its culmination in Horapa’s fare. The vibrant flavors of spices and herbs amid the wafting aroma of charcoal – this street vibe in Thailand, and the street foods he savored, serve as continued inspiration for the eatery’s exotic and exclusive dishes. Chef Son seeks to remain true to the heart and soul of Thai cuisine while maintaining unmistakable originality in his fare by capitalizing on locally produced fine seasonal ingredients. This culinary philosophy leaves us awaiting Korea’s novel take on Thai cuisine.
