A new Korean-inspired, all-day restaurant—coffee shop by day, cocktail lounge by night—has opened in Tribeca, led by the couple behind coffee bar For:Ground, Minho Yang and Seong Choi.
The menu, designed by Masa and ABC Kitchen alum Steve Song, adds a modern Korean twist to American classics. For breakfast and lunch, there’s toast topped with Korean purple sweet potatoes, or crabmeat and lemon aioli; for dinner, there are portobello rice balls or traditional ssam, with pork belly and avocado wrapped in butter lettuce; and at weekend brunch, waffles come savory, with pork belly, kabocha squash puree, and maple syrup, or sweet, with bananas, pecans, and locally-made strawberry lemongrass jam.
