Lamuko's Lokanta

Pamukkale


If you've been missing your hot spices and ginger, head here where host and chef Noriko serves up authentic Japanese and Korean dishes. Dak galbi (Korean spicy chicken), rice balls, gyū-don (rice with soy-and-sugar-seasoned beef and vegetables) and japchae (Korean sweet-potato noodles) all feature on the menu, which also has some great non-meat choices.
