Mama Lion - Koreatown

Mama Lion, new supperclub opened in Koreatown about 3 months ago. This place is similar to Terra Cotta, high-end design, upscale restaurant.  The chef is Michael Hung, who used to be a chef at Faith & Flower and Viviane. This place is very reasonable if you come here during happy hour. You get to try some of their popular food and cocktails for only $6.01 and you won't be disappointed. Everything I ate was really delicious.

Smothered tater tots - braised shortrib ragout,aged cheddar cheese 

One of the most popular appetizer here. Delicious as it looks.

Hamachi tartare - Asian pear, Korean chili, roasted sesame vinaigrette

Alaskan king crab cocktail - Avocado, Tomatillo salsa, grapefruit and smoked creme fraiche

Fresh bucatini pasta - Asparagus, braised leeks, pork sausage, 63 Degree egg

Sun God - Tequila, Ancho Reyes, House-made tangerine cordial, habanero shrub, cucumber, mint

This one was my favorite.

Black Swan - Cardamom-infused vodka, kahlua, cold brew, vanilla, coconut form 

If you love coffee like me, a must try.

Royal Hawaiian - House rum blend, blue curaçao, fresh pineapple, cinnamon syrup
