Reps for Roy Choi confirm Eater’s report that the Kogi and Chego chef is indeed collaborating with The Sydell Group (of New York’s Nomad Hotel) on a new restaurant in what will eventually be The Line Hotel, opening in 2013 on Wilshire. According to the site, the hotel will “celebrate-through food, drink, and design - all that Korea Town has to offer.” Hopefully that means more than just a tank full of Hite and a belly full of galbi jiim, since we know Daniel Humm’s truly epic foie-stuffed roast chicken won’t be making it from The Nomad anytime too soon.
