Fort Street Korean tapas and cocktails: low-lit, late-running, and serving a 'Squid Game' gochujang dish with the world's most appropriate name.
Fort Street, Downtown
More infoCera figured out that a date works better when the food arrives one plate at a time, the light is low, and someone named Magnus is making the cocktails. The menu is modern Korean tapas, including a stir-fried squid dish actually named 'Squid Game', spicy gochujang and well earned. The Boksung-a Highball, tart and peachy, is worth coming for alone. Grab two bar seats and split everything.
Aim for two seats at the bar and order in waves, kimchi dumplings, the Gochujang Buffalo Chicken, and the 'Squid Game' squid, so plates keep landing and the talk keeps flowing. Don't miss whatever Magnus is mixing; the peachy Boksung-a Highball is the move. It's small, it's dim, and it runs late, so there's no rush, budget around an hour and three-quarters and let the soju set the pace.
