replying to u/DinerEnBlanc: *whispers* It’s actually Seoul Salon. Warning, it’s 1000% a Gen Z hangout and I’ve never felt older at a restaurant, but their KFC was so damn good.

replying to u/DinerEnBlanc: Other Asian restaurants I'd recommend with that budget. None of them are omakase, but I wouldn't focus on omakase when dining in NYC anyway, at least not in that price range. * Konban * Bar Moga * Seoul Salon * Shuya * Raku * 8282 * Pot Luck Club * Phoenix Palace * Thai Diner * Fish Cheeks
