Hunny — Restaurant in New York

It's modern Korean-American fusion restaurant run by young folks who are passionate about their cooking.

I've ordered OG Galbi Tang, Hulk Kalbi Dubbap and Black Adam Dubbap to see what the deal is about.

First of all, food names are quite creative. I'll give you that. It's easy for people to remember what to get.

However, the taste of Hulk Kalbi Dubbap was just spicy. That's all. There's no actual taste within the sauce. And to actually get that flavor is from the french fries, which I felt that I was cheated because the kalbi had no seasoning or flavor to the beef.

Black Adam dubbap was slightly better but it still was just fries and sauce without meats having a single seasoning. I dont know. Maybe the chefs didn't season their meats when they cooked for my food, but it was definitely bland.

However, OG Kalbi Tang was definitely on point. The brew flavor was there, it was well cooked for a long time since radish was soft and the meats were tender enough to separate it from the bone easily. The only disappointing part was the noodles because they weren't soft, but still hard and raw.

The food potentials are there. But I honestly should give these guys 3 but 4 is because I want to give them...

This review is for the Hunny ghost kitchen location in the Bronx! First of all, I'm so excited to be able to order 순두부찌개 from home rather than having to go to Manhattan, Jersey or Queens for it. Second, the attention to detail is what sets them apart from any other restaurant I've ordered from. They write little hand written notes 🥹🥺 like HOW CUTE AND PERSONABLE! I'm vegetarian and the menu isn't really veg friendly but I leave notes requesting adjustments and they always deliver. The amount of restaurants that ignore requests outweigh those that are attentive to it. I'm sure it's annoying to deviate from the original listing but appreciate the time and effort invested into your customers' dietary preferences/restrictions. All orders come with two little candies in a little pouch, the soup is bagged to avoid leaks and a thank you note - again, the attention to detail is so cute! The bag everything comes in is even cute lol.

Most places at this ghost kitchen don't last more than a year but I hope Hunny does well and continues to thrive for their awesome customer service and...

I've been a regular at HUNNY since they newly opened, but I never got around to leaving a review because I felt a bit lazy. However, I want to give a big shout-out and show some love to my favorite kitchen, who has consistently nailed my orders every single time.

The spicy beef bone soup is my go-to comfort food, and I order it for dinner pretty much every day, so I can tell the difference between the earlier soup I had and what they serve now. I feel like they've increased the amount of galbi (beef), but the price is the same?! My other comfort foods are spicy soft tofu stew and their new fried dumplings (have them with Hulk sauce!)

Besides the food, it's clear how much thought they put into each order. They remember me and include personal notes, which is such a kind and welcoming gesture. It was so sweet the last time I received it, I should have taken a pic of it.

Anyway, all the staff look happy on their Instagram. Love that positive vibe behind the scenes. Happy staff...
