Booked 11 times today
Pocha is short for Pojanmacha in Korea. The exact definition of Pojanmacha is "Tented Cart on Wheels" that serves street food with drinks. Over the years, pojanmacha has developed more into a brick and mortar style and has similar feel that of Japanese style Izakaya. It is an intimate but causal spot to share good food and drinks with friends. We focus on Asian fusion with a concentration on Korean food.

• Fusion / Eclectic • Durham
Booked 39 times today
Little Bull is sincere, nostalgic comfort food, inspired by the palates of first-generation immigrant kids. Pocho cuisine is not a gimmick. Like Oscar, it’s a little bull-headed, but with no bullshit. It means more than loaded terms like “New American” or “modern Mexican.” And it’s authentic to Chef’s personal experience.“American food is undefined. But it’s been designated to certain ideas and people. It’s actually evolving, as much as our landscape is a melting pot. As much as my own identity as a first-generation American and chef.”Pocho started as a term used by people in Mexico to poke fun at the “American” kids who speak Spanglish. At Little Bull, pocho cuisine showcases the evolution of being a chef in America, inspired by every immigrant and their growing influence on our food.

    We have been to Nana’s a few times and it’s always excellent but tonight was way above and beyond all expectations. We had the Wagyu steak with several sides and the flavors were spot on. Our server was excellent and very attentive and knowledgeable. We always appreciate being able to sit at Nana’s and actually get to have a good conversation because the dining room is never too loud. Overall this was the best meal we’ve had in a very long time.

    What a wonderful place! I enjoyed the atmosphere: cozy, comfortable and authentic. The food was fantastic- we had the burrata and the octopus appetizers (some of the best I’ve had!) I could have stopped with just the appetizers— had the mushroom and artichoke lasagna, which will be a great leftover dinner tonight!
