Job Description

Somaek pays homage to the cuisine Chef/Partner Bissonnette fell in love with while cooking with his mother-in-law, Soon Han-so much that she is officially titled the restaurant's consulting chef. The menu, written in both Korean and English, celebrates traditional dishes and a robust banchan menu. This includes, but is not limited to four different kimchi, seasoned cucumbers and stewed potato. Not to be missed is Cartin's convivial cocktail menu featuring flavor-forward, low ABV libations. This includes the eponymous Somaek, our namesake that is a popular Korean drink made with soju and beer. Hospitality is at the core of this concept and the sister venues next door by BCB3..
