HANU, the contemporary Korean dining destination at St. Regis Gardens, Palm Jumeirah, introduces a refined new tasting experience dedicated to Korea’s most revered delicacy: Hanwoo 1++ beef. Famed for its exceptional marbling and exquisite flavour, Hanwoo 1++ is one of the most sought-after beef grades in the world, and HANU’s bespoke omakase-style menu brings this ingredient into the spotlight with artistry and authenticity.
The curated experience begins with a showcase of textures and flavour pairings rooted in Korean tradition and reinvented with modern finesse. Signature dishes include the delicately seasoned yukhoe-style Beef Tartare served with Korean pear and quail egg; the Hanwoo Beef Gyoza, filled with shiitake mushrooms and kimchi hummus; and a playful Crispy Kimbap layered with truffled caramelised beef and mushroom rice. Each dish reflects HANU’s culinary philosophy of craftsmanship, storytelling, and seasonal harmony.

At the heart of the journey, guests are treated to a tableside chef’s selection of flame-grilled Hanwoo cuts, each paired with classic Korean accompaniments – scallion salad, green leaf basket, house-made ban chan, and a soul-warming Hanwoo brisket soybean stew. The immersive nature of the experience brings guests closer to the cooking process, paying homage to the Korean spirit of communal dining.
To finish, diners are offered the Golden Pear Delight – a beautifully balanced dessert of Korean pear, golden caramel, walnut crumble, and tonka bean ice cream, designed to provide a gentle, elegant close to the evening.

Located on the rooftop of St. Regis Gardens, HANU merges Korean heritage with contemporary style, offering panoramic views alongside its flavour-forward cuisine. Led by Culinary Director Chef Kyung Soo Moon, whose 24-year international career shapes the restaurant’s bold and refined vision, HANU continues to redefine Korean dining in the UAE.
Guests can also opt to enhance the Hanwoo journey with a curated pairing of Korean-inspired beverages, including house-fermented rice wines, rare teas, and HANU’s signature cocktails infused with traditional botanicals. This elevated pairing experience offers a deeper immersion into Korean taste profiles, designed to complement the richness and delicacy of Hanwoo beef with precision and flair.

HANU’s serene, design-led interior draws from Korean architectural motifs, fusing natural textures, warm woods, and subtle lighting to create a sophisticated yet welcoming atmosphere. With indoor and terrace seating overlooking the Palm, the restaurant offers an idyllic backdrop for celebrations, intimate gatherings, and those in search of elevated cultural experiences.
As the only venue in the region to spotlight Hanwoo 1++ beef in this format, HANU’s tasting experience sets a new benchmark in regional Korean fine dining. It is not just a meal, but an immersive celebration of Korea’s culinary heritage—crafted for connoisseurs and the curious alike.
