First EVER MICHELIN STAR Korean chefs in the UK – How Sollip Blends French & Korean Flavours

Sollip, the first Korean-owned restaurant in the UK to earn a MICHELIN star, is redefining fine dining by blending French techniques with Korean flavours. Founded by husband-and-wife duo Chef Woongchul Park and Pastry Chef Bomee Ki, this London-based restaurant has gained a reputation for its delicate, beautifully crafted dishes that blur the lines between two distinct culinary worlds.

Small Contribution. Big Impact.

The Staff Canteen has always been more than a website—it’s a community, built by and for hospitality. We share the wins, the challenges, the graft, and the inspiration that keeps kitchens alive.

We believe in staying open to everyone, but creating this content takes real resources. If you’ve ever found value here—whether it’s a recipe, an interview, or a laugh when you needed it most—consider giving just £3 to keep it going.

 

A little from you keeps this space free for all. Let’s keep lifting the industry, together.
