SYKO

"All the fixins you need for a picnic spread can be found at Dukan Syko, the new Syrian Korean grocery that opened in Windsor Terrace, from the family behind a takeout counter with the same premise. Pick-up kimchi, Middle Eastern handpies, and canned bubble tea, and walk it down the street to Prospect Park." - Eater Staff

"Syko is a marriage between a Syrian wife, Rosette Khoury Kim, and a Korean husband, James Kim. The rewards are delicious: There are dishes like the Fatboy, a Korean pancake wrapped like a burrito, stuffed with bulgogi, as well as some of our favorite chicken shawarma, served with pickles. There are just a few seats at the takeout counter; during warm weather bring it nearby to Prospect Park." - Eater Staff

"A restaurant in Brooklyn known for its fusion of Syrian and Korean cuisines."

"Syko is a grab-and-go spot that defies the accepted logic of most restaurants that serve food from two different cultures. There’s no fusion here—instead, half the menu is Korean, and the other half is Syrian. Both halves have standout items, like the Syrian sujok sandwich and the Korean vegetable kimbap. We like either for a quick breakfast or lunch on a nice day, since Syko is a four-minute walk to Prospect Park (we’ve timed it). They also have a shaded outdoor structure with tables if you forgot to bring your picnic blanket." - carina finn koeppicus

"With just a few counter seats and some outdoor tables, Syko is really more of a takeout restaurant. But squeeze in alone and saddle up for one of South Brooklyn’s most creative menus. Syrian and Korean flavors, reflective of the owners’ roots, are harmonious here. Don’t sleep on the “Fat Boy,” a burrito stuffed with bulgogi; if weather permits, it’s really best eaten alone — so no one can see it drip down your chin — in Prospect Park, a block away." - Eater Staff
