Rechercher un restaurant du Guide MICHELIN

In the Chacarita district, close to the historic cemetery bearing the remains of the legendary tango singer Carlos Gardel, we came across this restaurant which, despite its modest appearance, is well worth a visit. Na Num, which is the Korean world for “sharing”, features a simply furnished contemporary interior with a dominant bar space enabling guests to eat while watching the chefs in full flow, including cooking on a Kamado grill. With dishes such as mussel ceviche with kimchi tiger’s milk, spicy tteokbokki with cream cheese, and saewoo (king prawn tails with butter, gochugaru, garlic aroma and a tofu cream base), the food here is contemporary Korean in style, completely designed for sharing, and combines Argentinian ingredients and Buenos Aires recipes with exotic Asian condiments. The highly colourful, well-textured and attractively presented dishes are also well-balanced in terms of their levels of spiciness, but it’s best to ask if you’re not sure. Booking ahead is recommended.
