The other weekend we had a date night! Me and M went to Kochi in Hell's Kitchen.
Such a laid back but yet refined restaurant. Very good food! With that said, most of the dished would not have needed the skewers in them. And do not think you are going there to have Korean food. They have incorporated nice flavors from the Korean kitchen, but the food is not Korean really.

My favorite dish was the bibimbap!
It somehow a small fly came out from the champagne bottle into my glass. Since they could not give us a new full bottle, since ours was almost finished, the dessert wine was on the house. That was a really nice gesture.
Not like Riche in Stockholm. Where M got glass chards in his food and they said - "Call us if you get any sever complications due to the glass in your food." I love Riche, but this episode from this summer was an embarrassment on their side.
