Modern Korean Restaurants Are Spreading All Over Mexico City | Eater
"Opened in late 2023 on a quiet avenue of Condesa, this minimalist, café-like spot was founded by a team with deep ties to Korea and experience at top New York kitchens. The menu intentionally blends Korean techniques and flavors with Mexico City inspiration: crunchy Korean fried chicken comes with gochujang and grilled pineapple, esquites crujientes fuses aged cotija and smoky sweet corn with Korean corn-cheese sensibilities, naengmyeon is reworked with aguachile, and a delicate braised mackerel highlights leeks and radish. Cocktails are playful and locally informed, exemplified by a Masquirilla that mixes sake, white vermouth, coconut, and lemon. The overall aim is to capture authentic Korean flavors while letting Mexican ingredients and dining culture naturally influence presentation and composition." - Robyn Huang
