Oseyo
6-Course Ode to Seoul Dinner Event
How do Koreans say “Come on in?” Oso Oseyo. And so, the name chosen for this new East Side eatery by owner Lynn Miller, who worked in the kitchens of the Palace Hotel and Savoy in New York before returning home to Austin, connotes the warmth and welcome that she associates with her Korean-American mother. In this intriguingly designed space—white plaster walls, indigo bunting, a basket chandelier, geometric Korean pojagi quilts draping the windows, and an open kitchen—culinary delights like Korean stews (jigae), bimibap, and wood-grilled proteins dominate the menu. All the dishes are created under the watchful eye of Executive Chef Mike Diaz, a veteran of the Austin restaurant scene with stints at Elizabeth Street Café, Perla’s Oyster Bar, Jeffrey’s Restaurant & Bar, and more. “The food is uniformly good,” says the Austin Monthly, and you will agree. We will be taking over Oseyo for the evening, and Chef Diaz will be on hand to answer your questions and tell you everything you always wanted to know about Korean cooking.
