Sungchul Shim, formerly of Per Se and most recently Neta, opens his first solo project Kochi in Hell’s Kitchen

KOCHI - Korean for ‘skewer’- a tasting menu of skewered dishes as well as menu items inspired by traditional Korean cuisine that’s built around seasonality and balance.

We are proud to present this menu as an homage to traditional Korean flavors elevated by the hand of gastronomic technique. Incorporating the freshest local ingredients daily, this is our exquisite interpretation of Korean cuisine.

[PLEASE NOTE]

We are not able to accommodate vegan, vegetarian with gluten-free and celiac diets as well as any allergies or aversions to allium, sesame (even if sesame oil is consumable), soy, gluten, and alcohol. We are able to accommodate vegetarians, aversions to red meat, shellfish, seafood, dairy, nut, gluten (if soy and soy sauce is consumable) and alcohol (if cooked alcohol is consumable) with at least a day of notice in advance.

From the OpenTable editors: Le Bernardin and Per Se alum Sungchul Shim dazzles diners with a nine-course Korean tasting menu of grilled skewers you should eat with your hands. You can expect tons of imaginative dishes like croquettes in beet soup, all while seated in the elegant marble and wood-clad interiors of the MICHELIN-Starred Hell's Kitchen restaurant.

    Amazing food and a top notch service. The tiny little kitchen makes you wonder how they can come up with all these rich and amazing flavors. Wine pairing was excellent.

    One of the, if not the, best meal of my life. I’m speechless. Food combination, sauces, presentation-can’t find this back “home.” Superb food complimented by Alex’s outstanding service. Tasting menu is amazing, and equals a meal. Incredible.
