Restaurant Forte Baden Baden
Editorial Review
Perennially crushed Korean beerhall. Stealth entry beneath the barber's pole, up to substantial space with long bar and bustling table scene. Han-Gook crew digging on rice cakes, kimchee, pig feet in salty shrimp sauce. Note to self: check with rabbi to see if double treyf cancels itself out and makes it kosher. Fried chicken is the key here, rotisserie roasted and then deep-fried for max moist/crisp ratio that makes Colonel Sanders look like an inbred hack. Rounds of Hite and soju. Surprise pick for pre-Garden tailgates. Why not?
