Chris Oh’s Next Restaurant Is In Honolulu | Eater
"The chef's first restaurant outside California, due to open in Waikiki in April, is conceived as a Korean 'bar-restaurant' that treats drinking as integral to the dining experience. The concept updates Korean classics for a convivial, late-night crowd, with dishes like barbecue chicken with melted cheese dip, bubbling pots of bulgogi and table-side Korean barbecue; the menu is intended to be tastier and more welcoming to people unfamiliar with Korean culture. The space will seat about 100, feature bright interiors and Korean street art, start by serving dinner until 2 a.m., and aims above all to be a fun, local spot that brings the chef's flavors and swagger to the island. Its name means “friend” in Korean." - Monica Burton
