"The chef’s first solo restaurant in NoMad, drawing on Filipino‑American heritage and a South Carolina upbringing to serve small plates and Southern‑leaning larger dishes. Highlights include sesame milk bread with pimento cheese, beef‑and‑barley tartare, fried tilefish lettuce wraps, crisp chicken thighs with pantry pickles and fermented hot honey, and heritage country rib skewers with baked beans and Carolina BBQ sauce; desserts range from Filipino‑style leche flan with citrus marmalade to apple hand pies with coconut caramel and a chocolate‑black sesame pudding cake." - ByKate Kassin
