Whether you’re on a date or with a big group, Atoboy‘s $42 tasting menu of 3 modern Korean small plates will be sure to satisfy. This format, which was inspired by Korean ‘banchan’ and brought to a minimalist NoMad space by husband and wife duo Chef Junghyun Park and manager Ellia Park, means that a pair of folks can try 6 different dishes, and a group of 4 can sample almost the entire menu. Ranging from smaller vegetable and seafood dishes to heartier proteins, the variety and progression of the tasting menu is sure to please the majority of palates. If you’re hungry, all of the add-on dishes on Atoboy’s menu are highly worth the upgrade fromthe 3 dish tasting menu.
