Meju is the first step for making a number of Korean dishes like doenjang (Korean miso), ganjang (soy sauce) and gochujang (chilli paste).

With a modern dining space and atmospheric interior on McKillip Street, this Melbourne eatery first opened in 2010 and has proven a city favourite ever since.

Fresh seafood and vegetables are also on offer for charcoal grilling, as are a tempting range of tapas, noodles, salads and rice dishes. A leading Asian restaurant in the Melbourne CBD, Guhng The Palace is well worth a visit.

Description of the meals could be improved. The beef stew was more like a beef soup. I suggest having the menu online or having photos in the menu would help. My ribs tasted great. Service was good though we were served with our neighbours order and they didn't realise until we told them. They quickly took it back.
