Chef Esther's version of a perfect steak. Tender flank steak marinated in a sweet-and-savory Korean BBQ marinade for 24 hours, then flash seared to lock in all that flavor. Endlessly versatile, serve this steak with bowl of rice or noodles for a quick dinner, or to bulk up your favorite salad for a hearty lunch.
Chef Esther Choi, chef/owner of mŏkbar, mŏkbar Brooklyn, and mŏkbar Midtown, as well as chef/partner of Ms. Yoo, grew up cooking traditional Korean food with her Korean-native grandmother. Inspired by the old-aged techniques of her grandmother's cooking, she believes that food is the ultimate expression of a country's culture. Choi seeks to offer guests an understanding and appreciation of Korean food and culture, from its history and social customs, to its language, geography, and arts, Since the 2014 opening of her first venture, mŏkbar in Chelsea Market, Choi has been hailed as a 'New Rising Chef' by Food Republic and was named a 'Zagat 30 under 30' NYC Culinary Rockstar in 2015.
