Job Details
SAN HO WON is a Korean restaurant from the three-Michelin-star team behind Benu. We are looking for a sous chef to join our kitchen team! Please apply with a resume and brief cover letter.
About: We believe that sharing a meal of meat grilled over charcoal and paired with a variety of homemade sauces and condiments is what the Korean BBQ experience is all about. Meat cooked over a table gas burner is just not the same. In our central BBQ stove, we grill over solid lychee wood charcoal produced specifically for SAN HO WON. The other items on our menu are rooted in home cooking and traditional flavors but embrace local ingredients and modern techniques. We hope to offer a representation of Korean cooking that contributes to our city’s vibrant dining culture.

Part of Restaurants by Chef Corey Lee
SAN HO WON is a Korean, charcoal BBQ restaurant located in the Mission District of San Francisco. The restaurant opened in the fall of 2021 and is a collaboration between Corey Lee and Jeong-In Hwang.
Jeong-In moved to San Francisco in 2016 to work with Corey at Benu. Although both chefs have a background in fine dining, they shared a vision for a casual Korean restaurant that uses the best ingredients and meticulous techniques with real BBQ cooked over proper charcoal. They wanted to bring a Korean restaurant to the Bay that they would want to dine at, bring their families to and be proud to work in.
