Tucked in a tiny apartment in Mylapore, Hangang Story is a little different from the others in this list. Originally made into a guest house, the place comes with a small eating place with no signboard. But it is home cooked and traditional! They serve seafood, chicken, pork and beef while some dishes might be subject to the availability of meat. They don't have a particular menu as such but you can always ask them for the day's special meal! If you are one of them who don't like to be fussy about food and want a hands-on experience in experimenting the cuisine, this is probably the best way. Their meal comes with a soup, kimchi, a main dish and three side dishes. Vegetarian options are limited.

With all the meaty buzz, we can't ignore the feeling of the perfect end to the meal! Desserts! And Cafe Mori in Adyar brings it in a golden Korean palate with their Bingsu. This shaved ice cream dessert is no joke. Strangely sweet and creamy, it is a mix of condensed milk topped with red beans, fruit syrup and chopped fruits. They even have rice cake topping with sesame seeds! Not in for a brain freeze? Then try their range of tea and coffee with honey bread and whipped cream. A sweet treat with sunlight coming in through the glass walls, it is as chill as it could get.

P.S - It is pure vegetarian.
