April 30--What started as a one-night pop-up dinner became Stephanie Izard's third restaurant as part of the Boka Group, where Chinese flavors and techniques are reverently, if not strictly, employed. Hand-pulled noodles and bao buns are kitchen strengths, there are fun takes on eggrolls (batter-fried and filled with duck) and a Forbidden Goat rice dish, and the Peking duck is among the best in town. There's a joyfullness about this place that one can't help sharing.
