Korean Food Allergy Card
Create a Korean phrase card for restaurants in Korea. Show no spicy, no pork, vegetarian, vegan, allergy, takeout, and ordering requests in Korean.
Quick Answer. Use the Korean Food Allergy Card to show simple Korean diet and allergy requests at restaurants. If you have a serious allergy, confirm carefully with staff and avoid uncertain dishes because recipes, sauces, and shared cooking surfaces can vary.
맵지 않게 해주세요.
Please make it not spicy.
This card helps communication, but it cannot guarantee ingredient safety. If you have a serious allergy, confirm carefully with staff and avoid uncertain dishes.
