What to expect

Welcome to Gyeongju Kitchen.

In this hands-on Korean cooking class, you will explore how rice is enjoyed in everyday Korean meals through three popular dishes: bibimbap, gimbap, and Korean egg roll (gyeran-mari).

Start with a vibrant Korean bibimbap, one of Korea’s most iconic and stylish dishes.
Then roll your own kimbap — easy to make, visually appealing, and fun to prepare by hand, perfect as a versatile finger food you can enjoy in many ways. You will learn to make gimbap, including a version inspired by Gyeongju-style burdock root gimbap, which reflects local flavors and simple home-style cooking.
Finally, try making Korean rolled omelette (gyeran-mari), a popular side dish with a unique texture and fun cooking technique.

The class is beginner-friendly, English-guided, and takes place in a cozy home-style kitchen with a small-group setting.

After cooking, you will enjoy your meal together with Korean soup. You can also pack any leftovers to take with you and have time to take photos to remember your experience.

The class runs with a minimum of 2 participants. Solo travelers are welcome and may be asked to reschedule or join another booking.
