Sweet. Spicy. Savory. Bold.

Japanese fried chicken tossed in hot honey for sweet heat, soy-pickled jalapeños for extra bite, smoked daikon for depth.

It’s comfort that travels. At Pier 57 and soon, on your way through JFK T4.

Last week on Epicurious, Maiko was on their Taste Panel to try all different kinds of Microwave Popcorn on the market! (Clearly Popcorn #1 and #23 were not the same..)

As the creator of Pom Pom Popcorn, we were floored to be included in this fun episode! Hope you enjoy 💙

Maiko at Home — Ep. 4 🏡

Real talk: this season is a lot. Holiday parties, school applications, year-end everything… I know many of us are moving through the same chaos. So when I cook at home, it has to be easy, grounding, and comforting.

This beet dish checks all the boxes—golden beets, labneh, a mustard–miso sauce, and a sprinkle of Bessou furikake. It looks fancy, but takes almost no effort, which is exactly my energy right now.

With all the joy the holidays bring, there’s also a lot on our plates. I hope you find a moment of calm—and maybe a nourishing bite—at home today. 💙

So grateful to be part of your holiday season—come snack with us at Bryant Park and Pier 57! 💙🍿🍙
