La Yeon

Stunning views are guaranteed from La Yeon’s position on the 23rd floor of The Shilla Hotel, but the quality of the food ensures your attention never strays far from the plate. There is a delicacy and lightness to the dishes, which take the time-honoured traditions of Korean cuisine and update them without compromising familiar flavours and textures. From crisp red mullet to tender, char-grilled Hanwoo bulgogi, the kitchen resists overcomplication and focuses instead on clean, precise flavours. The dining room is comfortable, and the service team is a delight.
