Learn About Us
Hello, I'm Chef Jin.
I made fried eggs for the first time when I was 6 years old because of my parents who work together — this was my first dish.
When I was 18 years old in high school, my father couldn't work because of an accident. This meant I had to earn my tuition, so I got work as a kitchen hand at a restaurant.
In 2005, I came to Australia to study English, and I started working again with kitchen hand, and then I thought I wanted to be a chef, and I went to a school called TAFE. I did an application at the Gold Coast Hyatt Hotel, and I was named the best employee for 6 months in a row.
I moved to Sydney in 2010 to study cooking in detail. And I started cooking Japanese food. I worked as a menu development team manager at Sushi Bay and operated Toro Sushiya / Toro Robata Sushi restaurant menu and open for 3 years.
To keep my promise to my daughter, I opened a small restaurant in the area of Corrimal in 2021. It was very difficult during Covid-19, but my appointment with my daughter was really important to me.
Jin's Place is a cheerful reinterpretation of Korean and Japanese food casual dining and takeaway. We provide customers with food with sincerity in their busy daily lives.
Thank you, Jin.

Absolutely wonderful ramen and dumplings!!! Some of the best we've had in a long time. Staff were lovely, the restaurant itself is nice and well kept and street parking was easy. Will definitely return!
I recently took the family out to try the food here. I ordered the vegan set menu. It was great value for money. I'll definitely be back!
Fabulous food & efficient, friendly service. All our meals were freshly cooked & served piping hot. Thanks Jin — we'll definitely be back!
