The Deets:
- BYOB: Feel free to bring your favorite wine or beer to complement the rich flavors of Mediterranean cuisine! KOR also features a hand-crafted signature mocktail and mixer menu (like the Bosphorus Fizz and KOR Sunset) that are specifically designed to be perfect pairings for your favorite brought spirits.
- Cost: We will plan to order some shared appetizers for the table—like their incredible KOR Tasting Board—to sample a variety of tastes, and then everyone can order their own entree. Please anticipate the total cost to be approximately $45-$60 per person (including tax and a 20% tip). To make bill-splitting easier, please bring cash.
- Allergies: If you have any allergies or dietary restrictions, please let me know as soon as you RSVP so I can inform the restaurant in advance. They have a variety of explicitly marked vegetarian and gluten-free options on the menu.
- Important: I will send a confirmation message a day or two before our visit to finalize the headcount. If your plans change, please update your RSVP to "Not Going" promptly. This allows those on the waitlist to join us and helps me adjust our reservation accordingly.
- Parking: KOR is located at 622 S 6th St, right in the heart of Philadelphia. Street parking can be found around the restaurant on 6th Street, but public transportation and carpooling are always encouraged.
Can't wait to explore the incredible flavors of Turkey and the Mediterranean with you!
