In Korean, the saying "Sinto buri" (신토불이 in Korean) translates to "body and soil cannot be separated." Chef Hyunjoo, the founder of Sinto Gourmet, believes that this means our bodies and spirits are at their best when eating foods that grow on the soil we live and work on. In Korea, this saying emphasizes the importance of local food, and of knowing and respecting where your food comes from. At Sinto Gourmet the team integrates the concept of sinto buri into everything they create.
