"If you sit in the front dining room, you can order a la carte at Corima. And that’s not a bad route. But to experience the full scope of what this Chinatown restaurant has to offer, do the tasting at the counter in the back. You’ll get around 10 Northern Mexico-inspired courses like head cheese draped over ayacote beans, mackerel dressed with mole amarillo, and a sope topped with lightly poached shrimp from Ensenada. Nothing’s too precious, and it all feels brand new." - bryan kim, willa moore, will hartman, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah
