Overview
Location: New York
Bio:
Born in Seoul, Korea, Chef Yoonjung always found that dessert and pastries had the ability to elicit strong and nostalgic memories. Fond of this effect, Chef found her way into The Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park, New York, and continued to stay in the States to hone her pastry skills at Two-Michelin Starred restaurant Aquavit. Continued attraction toward Korean cuisine eventually landed her a position in Jungsik’s Pastry team and then an eventual promotion to Executive Pastry Chef in the Summer of 2021. Whether you’re at Jungsik to celebrate a special occasion or simply a good time with friends and family, Chef Yoonjung hopes to cultivate a sweet experience from the dessert she creates.
