KRISTALBELLI FEATURED IN NY DAILY NEWS

Korean cuisine is experiencing the kind of revival that its musical counterpart, K-pop, has been undergoing for years, and so it’s only appropriate that JYP Entertainment is at the helm of this most recent culinary wave.
The record label, which has churned out all-star acts in Asia, including American crossover group the Wonder Girls (the five-member Korean girl group toured with the Jonas Brothers in 2009), opened the doors of its first restaurant venture earlier this month, generating buzz in the musical and culinary realms alike.
Kristalbelli, a self-proclaimed “high-end Korean Barbequerestaurant,” is tucked into the heart of Manhattan just a few blocks north of the city’s designated “Koreatown” and is part lounge, part restaurant – and all taste.

KRISTALBELLI FEATURED IN THE NEW YORK TIMES

“…the main attraction will be the grills themselves. Each unit, set in the center of the table, is made of a single piece of crystal, with infrared heat that will produce higher temperatures than charcoal or gas grills. In Korea, both infrared and crystal cooking have been touted for their health benefits. Here, some backyard grill jockeys have experimented with infrared, but this will be a first for a restaurant. Powerful downdraft machines are promised to suck the usual smoke and cooking smells out through the floor…”

KRISTALBELLI ON NY1 BY CELEBRITY REPORTER MICHELLE PARK!

A new, upscale Korean restaurant in Midtown is dishing up barbecue with a side of crystal. NY1′s Michelle Park filed the following report.
Maybe people like Korean barbecue, but at the new restaurant Kristalbelli, which opened up in Midtown on Monday, the BBQ comes with a little extra bling. True to the name, the meat goes straight from the crystal grills to your belly.
VIPs turned out Monday to celebrate the brand new addition to the Korean food scene, including The Wonder Girls, South Korean recording artists.
“I think people will love this new place. I’m sure food is amazing here too,” said Sun Min of The Wonder Girls.
“And J.Y. always had great taste in food,” said Lim Woo of The Wonder Girls.
Owner J.Y. Park, a celebrity himself, is a heavy hitter in the Korean entertainment industry. This is his first foray into food, and he says he hopes he brings the best of Korea to diners.
“I really wanted to create the right spot for non-Korean people to go and experience Korean food,” said Park.
This is no typical Korean BBQ restaurant with charcoal grills and heavily marinated meats. The restaurant serves up wagyu beef, organic vegetables and other goodies on an infrared, heat-powered grill with vents that make the entire process smoke-free.
At Kristalbelli, diners cook their own meat at each table on a crystal grill. Executive chef David Shim said the healthiest way to eat Korean BBQ or BBQ in general, because one can literally watch the grease slide off the grill
“The grill is designed this way so that as you cook the meat on the grill, all the grease falls down and it drips into this area, where there is a grease pan that catches all the grease,” said Shim.
Healthy or not, Korean food lovers said they were excited to eat at the new restaurant.
“Korean BBQ has been the hottest trend right now in the food industry and for normal people,” said Nana Lee, the owner of the Blank Space Gallery.
“I feel like everybody and their mother, these days, wants to eat Korean BBQ when they go out! So to have a really hip trendy place will be really cool,” said Nicole Bermensolo, the owner of Kyotofu.
Once you are done with your “Seoul” food, you may want to put on some dancing shoes, as the second-floor bar area has it all, from a DJ booth to specialty cocktails.
Kristalbelli is located at 8 West 36th Street.

KRISTALBELLI FEATURED IN SHECKY'S NIGHTLIFE

“Kristalbelli: Around the corner from the infamous block of Koreatown is Kristalbelli, the most glam Korean barbeque restaurant in existance. The space boasts two levels; the bottom is a general restaurant area, but the upper story has a lounge-like feel with dim lights, glitzy poufs and a glass interior design. The décor of the eating space is stunning, and everything you order is filled with flavor. Traditional Korean dishes, such as vermicelli noodles (a.k.a. Japchae) and various meats for barbequing, mingle with a few updates on Korean food, like their signature Kristalbelli Salad (juicy soy glazed pork belly immersed in greens with a soy vinaigarette dressing, $14). This hang spot for off-duty models, businessmen and otherhigh-profile people is in soft open from now until March 25th, with an $85 prix-fixe menu (individual prices of many menus items to come), so try it out today!”

KRISTALBELLI FEATURED IN TIME OUT NEW YORK

“K-town gets a modern infusion with this sleek Korean BBQ spot, from Seoul pop star J.Y. Park, opening December 22. The bi-level restaurant features cutting-edge “grills”—infrared-heated crystals set in a smiling copper monk’s belly. Chef David Shim (Gramercy Tavern, L’Atelier de Joël Robuchon) oversees the menu of elevated Korean fare, but diners cook their raw selections (Wagyu beef, pork belly, organic vegetables) on the translucent stones inset in their tables. Be sure to watch the clock: Owners say the new-wave contraption cooks ingredients twice as fast as traditional metal grill”

KRISTALBELLI FEATURED IN ASKMEN

“Why? Because there are in-table burners with downdraft, son.
Things just got fancy in K-town. Not doilies and Impressionism fancy, but crystals in your table fancy. The tables at the two-story Korean BBQ spot from Seoul-based entertainment mogul J.Y. Park are equipped with built-in crystal grills that cook your Wagyu using infrared rays. The same tables at Kristalbelli also have a downdraft system, keeping the air clean so you don’t tear up and look like a wimp trying to order a Wagyu rib-eye, bulgogi for two with mushroom stew or gujeoplan, a traditional emperor’s dish of assorted vegetables and beef served with crepes.”

KRISTALBELLI FEATUYRED IN BLACK BOOK

Editorial Review:
IN PREVIEW. K-pop BBQ joint from Seoul star J.Y. Park. More upscale than your usual K-Town meat slinger, with elaborate venting to keep you from smelling like an apartment fire. Kristalbelli = super-heated crystal grills dropped in the belly of your table, putting just the right sear on beef, pork belly, or fresh seafood. Chef has a stacked résumé, also turns out Korean favorites, well-matched to the full line of soju shelved at the bar. Bi-level space offers small plates and cocktailing in the swank lounge downstairs.

KRISTALBELLI FEATURED IN METROMIX

“Korean entertainment mogul J.Y. Park‘s first New York venture is set to up the K-Town lounging game big with Kristalbelli, a restaurant and lounge where diners cook on proprietary crystal grills that heat the meat using infrared rays. Worried your fresh white linen suit will smell like charred wagyu? A down-draft system drags the smoke out faster than you can say, “Are we still on for karaoke tonight?” The main menu focuses on barbecue, with ingredients ranging from rib eye and pork belly to scallops to market vegetables. A separate lounge menu serves small plates including the sushi-like Chadol Chobap (thinly sliced beef brisket over rice ball), Gujeolpan (nine assorted vegetables and beef with thin rice paper for rolling), and Mung Bean Pancake (freshly ground mung bean with beef and vegetables).”

KRISTALBELLI FEATURED IN DNAINFO

“Kristalbelli, which dubs itself as “New York’s first upscale Korean barbecue restaurant,” is set to make its debut later this month at 8 W. 36th St., near Fifth Avenue. Each table will feature a special grill made from a block of crystal that prepares food using infrared heat, cooking it faster, at higher temperatures and in a more healthy way, some say. The menu will offer Korean classics — including rib eye, Kobe and Wagyu beef, duck, seafood and vegetarian options — and focus on seasonal, organic food from local farmers markets, according to a company release. In addition to the food, the two-level restaurant will also offer extensive wine pairings and a special “downdraft” air system designed to filter smells from smokey grills. ”
