Round K Arrives In LA Hidden Inside A Cobbler To The Stars on May 3rd
LOS ANGELES, May 15, 2018 /PRNewswire-iReach/ -- Wabi-sabi (侘寂) - a world view centered on the acceptance of transience and imperfection. The aesthetic is sometimes described as one of beauty that is "imperfect, impermanent, and incomplete"
For three years founder Ockhyeon "OK" Byeon created, tinkered and tested his wabi-sabi vision for a new coffee culture at his Round K Cafe on the lower east side of Manhattan. During this time, OK established a global reputation as an industry innovator; Round K's hidden temple to coffee arts and exotic coffee concoctions have been featured in Food & WIne Magazine, The Michelin Guide and Bloomberg, and his small Korean nostalgia cafe has become an international food blogger destination.
On May 3rd, 2018 Round K will open an L.A. hidden cafe inside the legendary Pasquale's Shoe Repair at 5616 San Vicente Boulevard. OK and partner Emile "Hong" Westergaard are going bicoastal to bring Round K's world famous drinks to the West Coast.
Snake your way past the classic oaklined cobblers storefront, through the atrium display of exotic custom shoes out the backdoor. Stop for a moment and peer to your left into the master cobblers workshop. Now take a right and find our black back door. Go inside - our Round K coffee chef will greet you. Take a seat at the coffee bar. Let him make you our house roast espresso, or one of our signature meal sets. How about a Round K "Matte Black Latte" and "Mrs. Lee's Breakfast" featuring our espresso steamed eggs atop a croissant served with spicy kimchi and bacon?
Stay and chat at the bar, or head back outside to a table on our shaded sidewalk. Relax. Listen to the music. Enjoy the sun. Meet an artist, techie, entrepreneur sitting at the next table. They are probably there three days a week.
That is the beauty of coffee. We tend to go back to the same spot, and when we do start to meet and know other regulars. This is how we build up our Round K wabi-sabi community of creative coffee drinkers. Even a newcomer or one-timer can join in as we slow time to enjoy wonderful drink, food, and community.
