MUKJA! A Way of Life
In Korean, mukja means “Let’s Eat!” Food is an integral part of Korean culture, but beyond that, it celebrates an evolving identity that we are proud to represent in Portland. Korean dining is often loud, hectic, vibrant and happy—just like the phrase that names it, this festival strives to create a joyful, exciting atmosphere for everybody to enjoy Korean cuisine.
ABOUT KAC
The Korean American Coalition is a non-profit, non-partisan community organization dedicated to, among many other things, promoting Korean food, restaurants and chefs in the community. Our vision for “Mukja!” is to share and celebrate our passion for Korean food and culture with the vibrant Portland community we call home.
CHEF LINEUP
KAC is proud to present an excellent lineup of award-winning chefs who will be feeding the hungry crowds at this year’s festival. Hailing from various parts of the Pacific Northwest, they all share a deep love and appreciation for Korean food and flavor.
