Koreatown Experience with Eater Young Guns Chef Deuki Hong Frame & FRAMEbar > Koreatown Experience with Eater Young Guns Chef Deuki Hong

frame presents eater young guns Eater Young Guns Eat + Drink Week with A Koreatown Experience with Eater Young Guns Chef, Deuki Hong and A Soju Experience by Eater Young Guns Class of 2017 Suzi An  
At 15, Deuki Hong began working with Aaron Sanchez at Centrico, de-seeding dried chile peppers in the kitchen. After finishing high school, he left Centrico to attend the Culinary Institute of America, at Sanchez’s insistence. While there, he did a ten-month externship at Momofuku, where he worked as a line cook from the first day. Hong graduated from the CIA in March 2009, and the following day, he started work at Jean-Georges, where he spent about a year and a half.  Thinking back on experiences vital to his career ” Momofuku wanted you to think outside the box, creatively,” he says. “Jean-Georges was very, ‘We’re Jean-Georges. We don’t need you, but we’ll hire you anyway, and you’re lucky to be in this kitchen.” Fast forward, an Eater Young Guns Winner, Class of 2015, chef at Sunday Bird and Sunday at the Museum in San Francisco, Hong is high-tailing it to frame to celebrate his Korean heritage with a historically rich feast based on his New York Times-bestselling book, Koreatown: A Cookbook.   Hong spent over two years traveling to Koreatowns of the United States, gathering recipes and interpretations of 100 chefs and business owners from LA and New York to Chicago and Virginia. “It was like, damn, there’s freakin’ Koreans everywhere! And a Koreatown everywhere.” Bringing together this Korean food, drink, and cultural experience, we welcome Seattle-based Suzi An, Young Guns Class of 2107  with an authentic Soju experience to round out the evening. Get yourselves booked in as this frame experience promises to be one hella of a good time. _________________________________________________________________ MENU 1 Puffed Rice Chip and Sour Cream and Onion 2 Oysters with Asian Pear granita 3 Wings ++ Fried Rice Cake 4 Kimchi Fried Rice 5 Bossam 6 Soju Bombs 7 Korean nostalgic desserts + snacks + candy ++Chef is kindly requesting no dietary modifications to the menu++ _________________________________________________________________ About Eater Young Guns: The Eater editors seek out the best and the brightest new restaurant industry talent to induct into each year’s class of Eater Young Guns.
