A Taste of True Korea: Drop2Drop x Michelin-Starred Korean Food Chef

At Drop2Drop, we’re all about introducing people to meals that are not only delicious but meaningful — the kind of food that tells a story.This time, we’ve partnered with a Michelin-starred Korean cuisine chef, renowned for his expertise in temple food, to create a one-of-a-kind Korean lunch box experience.

What Is Temple Food?

Temple food is a cornerstone of traditional Korean cuisine — simple, clean, and deeply intentional.Rooted in Buddhist principles, temple food focuses on balance, seasonal ingredients, and respect for nature. It’s vegetarian, but that’s not the point. Koreans love temple food because it’s healthy, light, and energizing — a meal that makes you feel good long after you’ve eaten it.

Our chef believes in bringing this philosophy to everyone — not just vegetarians — so we worked together to create something for every palate.

The Perfect Harmony: Temple Flavors Meet Everyday Favorites

For meat lovers, our chef prepared premium proteins — beef, chicken, and salmon — served alongside temple-style banchan (Korean side dishes).Each side is thoughtfully crafted with seasonal vegetables, natural seasoning, and time-honored techniques that highlight pure, clean flavors without artificial ingredients.

This is the best of both worlds: the depth and mindfulness of temple cuisine, paired with the comfort and satisfaction of your favorite proteins.

What’s Inside the Box

Each lunch box is a complete, nourishing experience — designed to make your midday meal feel like a mindful pause:

• 🍱 Main Dish – Choice of beef, chicken, or salmon prepared simply to complement temple-style sides

• 🌿 Temple Banchan – Fresh, flavorful side dishes made with natural seasonings and seasonal ingredients

• 🍚 Steamed Rice – Hearty grains for a balanced, comforting meal

• 🍮 Light Dessert – A subtle, naturally sweet finish

Why We Love It

This collaboration brings something rare to the Bay Area: a true taste of Korean authenticity. It’s not fusion. It’s tradition — refined, balanced, and thoughtfully adapted for modern dining.

At Drop2Drop, we handle all the details — from menu coordination to delivery — so you can just sit back, enjoy, and share this beautiful cultural experience with your team.
