The Twin Cities’ New Restaurant Openings of Fall 2022 - Eater Twin Cities

"Chef Jamie Yoo has expanded Abang Yoli, his popular Southeast and East Asian food stall at the Market at Malcolm Yards, to the old Boludo space on Nicollet Avenue. Yoo, a Bellecour veteran, serves a very popular fried chicken sandwich — its tangy, house-pickled vegetables are an ideal foil to the heavier fried chicken breast, and the fresh-made buns from Vikings & Goddesses pastry lend an irresistible creaminess. But he emphasizes that the new restaurant is so much more than a fried chicken spot. “We combined some Southeast and East Asian cuisine with French technique, so there’s a lot of diversity,” says Yoo. The ssam menu, especially, has expanded, adding pork belly, marinated grilled tofu, and bulgogi-marinated short rib. The space is small, so Abang Yoli is starting with a takeout menu, with indoor space to dine by winter." - Justine Jones
