Mr. and Mrs. Wang from the northeast were among the first guests to visit Woori Mountain Restaurant today. After their meal, Mr. Wang told the restaurant manager, “We’ve been to Korea twice, but we never expected to enjoy such authentic Korean BBQ and bibimbap while on vacation in Sanya. The restaurant faces the blue sea, giving us the feeling of being on vacation in Jeju Island, Korea. And the Korean chef can even chat with us in Chinese. After talking with him, I learned that he previously worked at a Michelin two-star restaurant where the average spend per person was...1200yuan. Just thinking about it, I feel so lucky and that we got great value for choosing to have Korean food here.”
Hotel Director of F&BLouis Fornshared, “The old Shanhai Tian Hotel already had an excellent reputation for Korean cuisine. Now, we’ve carried on that legacy, elevated it, and introduced the premium Korean cuisine brand Woori Mountain from Marriott. We not only provide a diverse dining experience for guests vacationing in Sanya, but also fulfill the culinary desires of local foodies who love Korean food. Korean cuisine places the utmost emphasis on freshness and marination: freshness depends on the quality of ingredients, and our beef is mostly imported Australian wagyu — a rare find even in Korean restaurants, chosen specifically to ensure the best grilling flavor. Marination depends on, and is the ultimate test of, a chef’s skill. Our world-class Chef Park is a master with deep expertise in Korean cuisine. The marinades at the restaurant are meticulously prepared by him using carefully selected apples, pears, garlic, onions, and more, with strict control over the optimal marination time. We believe that under his leadership, we will make Woori Mountain Restaurant a must-visit destination for food lovers across the city and even the entire island.”
