What: Aster - An upcoming collaboration between DPG and chef-owner Brett Cooper
When: Mondays in January and February; additional dates 2/16 and 2/23
Where: Coi Restaurant, North Beach - 373 Broadway
Decor: On my last (and first) visit to Coi, I remember the space being very unique; the dining room was all white and I wondered how it would work for a more casual pop-up. Upon arriving we noted that the dining room was no longer all white, it had been redecorated (and not just for the pop-up). There was a playlist of classic songs in the background and the guests and service team seemed to be enjoying themselves.
