Mina Park is a cook and writer who owns and operates restaurants baroo and Shiku with her husband Kwang Uh. Baroo, which recently reopened with a relaxed, modern Korean tasting menu, was described by the late Jonathan Gold as the “taste of the future.” Mina began her culinary career while living in Hong Kong with her pop-up platform, Sook, which led to events and collaborations throughout Asia and Europe. She and Kwang now live in Koreatown with their toddler son.
