우리 이야기  ·  OUR STORY

Our Story: Hongdae Street Food, Made in Melbourne

Buza opened in Melbourne in July 2017, inspired by the sizzling hot plates and street snacks of Hongdae Food Street in Seoul.

 

Founders James and Julia Kim perfected the special sauces and frying method behind every piece. Today there are six Buza restaurants across Melbourne and Sydney.
