This Is Still One of NYC’s Hottest Restaurants, Even After Seven Years | Eater NY

"Located within the ground floor and basement of a residential brownstone in Murray Hill, this two-Michelin-starred Korean fine dining spot offers a sleek, intimate setting with both an upstairs bar and a downstairs chef’s counter, where just 28 guests are served each night. The 10-course tasting menu, created by chef Junghyun “JP” Park, feels personal, refined, and visually beautiful, with seasonal dishes like a fried abalone course inspired by the Korean Chinese dish tangsuyuk and a plate of local monkfish liver with squid and tangerine standing out on a recent visit. Desserts are unusually impressive and light, including a passionfruit ice with white lotus tea jelly and tapioca pudding, as well as a rice ice cream with soybean mousse and honeycomb. Service here is the most impressive experienced in NYC, striking a balance between highly attentive and completely unstuffy, with staff as ready to chat about Nathan Fielder as they are about the best pizza in Jersey City — a level of hospitality that helped earn the restaurant a James Beard Award for Outstanding Hospitality. Nonalcoholic and low-ABV beverage pairings, priced at $110, are delightful and feature teas, fermented drinks, and nonalcoholic wines, rounding out an experience that remains at the forefront of Korean fine dining even seven years after opening." - Zoe Becker
