Under the direction of chef Brandon Foster, this infectiously energetic fidelity to global foodstuffs courts with its playful—and confident—cookery augmented by as many as 25 different dipping sauces, the choices of which range from a Thai chile vindaloo to a dried berry chutney. Sultry lighting, a spirited bar scene and skillfully made cocktails add to its magnetism.
