Open since late October 2007, this Asian spot from the folks behind neighborhood fave Noodles Etc. hopes to corner the late-night market in Hyde Park with a full bar and a menu of affordable eats. The menu offers a mix of contemporary and traditional Asian fare. Look for updated takes on regional favorites (crab rangoon becomes lobster rangoon, for example) and specialties such as pumpkin-coconut soup, crispy pan-fried mussels with Sriracha (Asian hot sauce) bean sprouts and scallions, and beef Massaman curry.
