I saw photos from here on Instagram and FB, i was super excited to try their food. So one Saturday i decided to travel uptown to try it out, looked so cute and amazing from the outside, the tacky "asian" decor didn't turn me off one bit, neither did the upscale price tag for the food, but (there is always a but) the weird insanely tangy sauces and broth for the "soups" did.. i am not sure what the chefs were thinking, but these are not flavors meant for these dishes, at all..
i like "fusion" food as much as the next guy but the lamb pastrami bun tasted as they just saw one in a magazine and tried to match it without reading the ingredients.
kimchi fried rice, it was more of typical Chinese fried with clear kimchi thrown on top of it, which is "technically" kimchi fried rice, but not what it is supposed to be. There was a sour element to it that is not found in Korean cuisine, that could just be due to the fusion.
up next we have the "ramen" .. uhm, if all you have had is Top Ramen, you may find this blend delightful or just amazingly odd, as for me, i enjoy my Japanese food, so this tangy mess was definitely a let down as well.
another one of us ordered some katsu thing, but that is not even worth describing, unless you have a sweet tooth.
the duck steamed bun was the only savior of the bunch, my only gripe was the bao was much too dense, and i ended up leaving half it on my plate, when usually that is the best part.
If the pricing wasn't so pretentious, i would have thought about giving this two stars.
