Dinner at Genesis House

Chef Mincheol Shin is quietly doing some of the most delicious Korean cooking in New York right now.

Whether you’re stopping in for the tasting menu, lunch set, or à la carte offerings, it’s worth experiencing for yourself.

The last time I ate here was when it first opened back in November 2021. Coming back now with Chef @mincheol___shin running the kitchen was such a treat. The food is better than ever, the hospitality was wonderful, and I left already thinking about when I’d return.

Two standouts for me were the Quail Samgyetang and the Tteokgalbi. Both dishes were comforting, flavorful, and really memorable.

If you haven’t been, Genesis House is the kind of place you’ll want to keep coming back to. Swipe through for a peek at the night — and let me know if you’ve been yet, or if it’s on your list!
