2. Upgraded menu of Korean, Chinese, and Western foods + Chef’s live corner!

Many would agree when we say that the star of any airport lounge is the food menu. The Matina Gold Lounge is all the more special because it features culinary delights from hotel chefs. 🧑🍳 You can enjoy a simple meal through a variety of dishes from all over the world, including salad🥗, bread🥖, cup noodles, fruits, galbitang (short rib soup), bulgogi, seaweed soup, and pasta  🍝. The crowd favorite is the “Dessert Corner”, which has also been renovated. Colorful desserts made with fresh, seasonal fruits are enough to deliver the grand finale to your meal!

Have you ever been to an airport lounge that has a chef cooking up your food right in front of you? A brand new “Live Corner” has been added to the lineup of food, featuring a chef using only the freshest ingredients to whip up special menu items for you. 👏👏👏 Watching your food come to life by the hands of a professional chef is a treat for both the eyes and stomach!
