Cotra – Korean
Cotra pulses with a modern energy, offering a sophisticated yet playful sanctuary where traditional Japanese flavors are reimagined through bold, inventive small plates. The air hums with the sizzle of mochiko chicken and the smoky aroma of blistered harissa-miso shishitos, inviting guests to linger over umami-rich treasures like shio koji shrimp toast and jewel-toned Hokkaido dons. This sensory journey balances the savory crunch of okonomi fried potatoes with the delicate brightness of sun-dried tomato edamame, creating an unforgettable tapestry of contemporary tastes.
