New York’s Elegant Korean Cuisine: Moono🥂

📍Moono 29 E 32nd St, New York, NY 10016 Moono is the sister restaurant of the Michelin one-star Korean restaurant Jua. Chef Hoyoung Kim, who trained in Paris and worked in both Michelin three-star French and two-star Korean restaurants, opened Jua in New York, which earned its Michelin star in 2021. In 2023, he launched Moono, a more casual and affordable option with prices ranging from $50 to $100 per person. Despite the lower price point, the quality remains at a high-end Korean fine dining level. What sets Moono apart is its exceptional space design and dining atmosphere. The high-ceilinged space is designed with a minimalist and elegant touch, featuring a warm color palette. The restaurant controls the number of diners, ensuring spacious seating for a wonderful dining experience. The service is impeccable! The dishes combine traditional Korean cuisine with modern creativity. You can enjoy familiar Korean dishes like stews, bibimbap, and pancakes, but the presentation, ingredient pairing, and flavor details are elevated and more refined. FRIED CHICKEN 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 This is the ultimate Korean fried chicken! A must-order! The chicken is prepared with such precision—crispy on the outside and not greasy at all, with the perfect cooking temperature. BEEF HOTPOT 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The beef hot pot is highly recommended! It features four cuts of beef, including tongue and brisket, all incredibly tender and flavorful, melting in your mouth. UNI SOTBAP 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The sea urchin rice is absolutely delicious and a signature must-try! Once you taste it, you’ll be speechless and full of praise. The rich seasoning and luxurious texture are unforgettable. CHESTNUT 🌟🌟🌟 A randomly chosen dessert that was a bit too sweet, with a slightly bitter base. It was just average. #FineDiningNYC #BeautifulEatsNYC 🌟
