Corridor 109 Pop-Up@Koreatown ★★★

Fantastic Modern Asian Tasting Menu Pop-up Experience. Reminds me of 3-Michellin-Star The Chef's Table at Brooklyn Fare in New York, where Chef Brian Baik worked at. Very hard to book - need to book at ticket release on Tock. We were able to book because a waitlist just opened up. Amazing fresh seafood with a modern twist. We bought our own bottle of Riesling, and the restaurant complimented on our wine choice. It went very well with all the flavorful dishes. $195 per person (2022 pricing). Corkage fee is $30. Totally worth it. Old pop-up location was in Koreatown. New location in Chinatown.

Spanish Fly Gastropub@Koreatown ★★★

Great Tapas Place to Hang Out, but Chef Zadi is now gone... The brik (Alegerian/ Tunisian turnover) were wonderful. I have got a Thrillist Rewards coupon: $32 for Endless Sangria & 3 Tapas of your choice. Interesting collaboration: the chef is French, the waiter is Spanish, and the owner is Korean. The waiter, Gustavo, was really fun and friendly. You can speak Spanish with him.
