Juanmoto x Coldtea

What happens when a chef from one of your favourite restaurants takes over a fun bar in Kensington? Juanmoto! Leemo Han from Hanmoto, Pinky's Ca Phe and OddSeoul created a new menu at the popular "hidden" bar in Kensinton Market, Coldtea. Being a fan of his food, I couldn't wait to try it.

One night after an event that didn't feed me enough, a few of my friends and I headed to Juanmoto. I didn't know about them but I knew I wanted to try pretty much everything on the menu - it's not hard because the menu is pretty small.

Check out the dishes we had:
