๐ Joo Ok Spring Menu ๐
Joo Ok is a hidden gem in New York, boasting a Michelin one-star rating. After sampling their spring menu, Iโm convinced that Korean Michelin cuisine is truly tailored to Asian taste buds. ๐ The flavors are incredibly refreshing and never feel heavy or greasy. Thereโs a delightful balance that keeps each dish light and enjoyable. Youโll find some truly unique and innovative flavors, but theyโre never bizarre or off-puttingโjust the right amount of novelty to keep things interesting. ๐ โจ The highlight of the evening was the main course, Mishima Wagyu. The beef was incredibly tender and flavorful, perfectly complemented by homemade kimchi and burdock root mixed vegetables. The combination of these traditional Korean sides with the high-quality wagyu was simply divine. To enhance the experience, they paired it with a crisp white wine from the Napa Valley. ๐ท โจ And to wrap up the meal, they surprised us with a Graduation dessert platter. It was a beautiful assortment of sweets, each piece as delightful as the last. ๐ฐ #NewYorkFood #HiddenGems #RomanticRestaurant ๐โจ
