Part 3/9:
The restaurant is known for accommodating walk-ins, so I decided to arrive early in hopes of snagging a seat. Located in the Flatiron District, Coco Do is the brainchild of restaurateur Simon Kim, also behind the Michelin-starred Korean steakhouse, Coat. The name “Coco Do” hints at an amalgamation of French and Korean words for chicken, which is just a glimpse of the culinary excitement that awaited me.
