Good, but vegans be careful

Although they will tell you that everything is vegan, it isn't. I got the company's address off one of the packages of fake meats for sale in another establishment and checked it out. On their English site, ingredients are listed for each product they sell. A lot of them have whey in them. As long as you make up a list of which is which and question carefully, you should be all right. But remember, in this country, things like eggs, pork, ham, and fish are not "meat", so it's not too surprising that "whey" is considered to not be an animal product.

I'm sure that for vegetarians, especially those who like fake meats, this is a fantastic place. But, vegans do need to be more careful.

Pros: clean, friendly, good prices

Cons: whey in some fake meats

Is the website you're talking about this one? http://vegefood.x-y.net/eng/
I looked through all of the products and didn't see whey or any other non-vegan ingredients listed. Perhaps the recipes have changed since 2007?

new kid on the block

this place was great. dishes start at 7000won, and they have a great selection of veg/mock meats and soups.
the restaurant has a nice set up. there is no smoking and no booze.
i am a fan of mock meats and bean curd, so loved this place. it therefore offers something that other insadong eateries don't. give it a try.

Pros: happy staff, mock meats, big selection
