DISH OF THE WEEK

DISH OF THE WEEK: Fried Chicken at ATOBOY

Every week, I document another dish that impressed and satiated me during my food adventures around New York City

Although they have been marketed as a tasting menu of banchan, Atoboy really serving a tasting menu of composed modern Korean dishes. And they’re pretty good – I just take issue with the marketing of the dishes as high-end banchan. Whatever you call it, the fried chicken with garlic and spicy peanut butter sauce is worth paying for.

Price: Part of $36 tasting
