The Press

“This ambitious new Asian-accented restaurant strikes an elegant tone, with bar dining, an open kitchen and a chef’s table on the ground floor, and a garden lounge and main dining room upstairs. Velvety upholstery sets the style for diners, who may opt for raw bar specialties, charcoal-grilled eggplant, Korean-style chicken stew or braised pork belly. Seasonings like gochujang, Sichuan pepper, tart plums and ssamjang, a Korean dipping sauce, are used throughout.”

Florence FabricantThe New York Times
