"A Japanese-inspired listening bar that opened in 2023, Yokai will wind down on Thursday, July 17 to shift to the new Superprime format; several Yokai favorites — notably the uni toast, signature skewers, and Hokkaido-style milk buns — are promised to remain on the Superprime menu." - Dianne de Guzman
"A tri-level food court in the heart of Koreatown offering Korean fried chicken, fist-size dumplings, deeply flavored soups, Japanese over-rice bowls, sushi, and desserts like churros washed down with bubble tea." - Robert Sietsema
"I saw Choi give the city its first Korean food court in 2011 with Food Gallery 32 on 32nd Street, a multi-concept space that included stalls like Hanok and Jin Jja Roo and opened to positive reviews—Serious Eats even called it almost “otherworldly”—and I note that Choi sold the hall a year later to new operators who still run it." - Caleb Pershan
"Backed by a $6 million investment from Group KFF, this forthcoming Midtown Manhattan food hall will occupy 218 West 40th Street and feature 16 restaurants—mostly Korean—bringing together vendors such as an egg-sandwich shop, a boba tea outlet, a Korean fried-chicken chain, a Korean comfort-food spot, and a Jongro BBQ outpost; the operator is considering expansion of the concept to multiple U.S. cities including Boston, though plans remain in early stages." - Dana Hatic
"A massive, $6 million Korean food hall called K-Food Gallery is slated to open in New York near Times Square as a 22,000-square-foot market (projected for 2020) and is already eyeing expansion to other U.S. cities, including Seattle; the planned lineup will include vendors such as Tiger Sugar, Eggdrop, and BB.Q Chicken." - Gabe Guarente
