"This Korean American party restaurant in Noho will be offering a two-night Seollal dessert special. The five-color gyeongdan (sesame rice balls) include raspberry, black sesame, injeolmi (a soybean-y flavor). The dish comes with a small envelope containing a real dollar bill. It’s available on Thursday, January 30 and Friday, January 31." - Nadia Chaudhury
"Starting December 23rd—31, C as in Charlie will offer their special holiday dish—a Beef Wellington. Dubbed “one of the hardest dishes to make,” this version features a filet mignon wrapped with a spring roll with pâté and duxelles, finished with bokbunja bordelaise." - Kevin Chau
"C as in Charlie is on a mission to get you drunk. Dinner at this Korean American restaurant starts with a free shot of sake/soju, and the drinks list has lots of Korean spirits to keep the party going. The food menu — fried chicken, a “Seoul’sbury steak” — is short and affordable. Did we mention it has one of the strangest bathrooms in the city?" - Eater Staff
"This neon-red Noho spot can make a Tuesday feel sexy. And all of their Korean-Southern dishes cost $16 or less. The next time you need a little weekend energy on a weeknight without having to refresh the reservation page at exactly 9am, plan to come here—especially if you're into the idea of ox bone cream pasta, gochujang-glazed fried chicken, and seoul'sbury steak with galbi jus and gruyere grits.

"This unique small-plates spot is serving dishes that combine Korean and Southern food. Their take on Salisbury steak has galbi jus on top of gruyère grits, and they also have a carbonara-like pasta with a seolleongtang-based cream sauce. (Order both.) Nothing costs more than $16, and the portions are surprisingly big. The intimate space is lit by a red neon sign, which makes you feel like you’re a photographer in a dark room, and the atmosphere is boisterous. There’s no better spot in the neighborhood for non-fast food at 10pm on a Wednesday." - bryan kim, kenny yang
