|
The purpose of this paper was to research the history of Korean restaurants in Manhattan, NY in the 1960’s-1970’s. These
Korean restaurants were the pioneers in the globalization of Korean food. It is assumed that ‘Mi Cin’ was the first Korean
restaurant in Manhattan and opened on March 1st, 1960. In the 1960’s, it is estimated that there were four Korean
restaurants in Manhattan. In the 1970’s, the number of Korean restaurants increased to more than 18, and their main menu
items were divided into three types: Korean fusion menu such as ‘Lunch Special’ for American customers, beef barbecue
menu for American and Korean customers, and Korean traditional menu for increasing Korean immigrants.
