Heralded chef Corey Lee – former chef de cuisine of 3 star Michelin restaurant French Laundry – has found the venue that will house his new restaurant “Benu.”  The whole culinary world has been buzzing since Corey announced his departure from French Laundry.  It looks like he’ll be setting up shop in a 66 seat venue at the Two space in San Francisco’s SoMa.  So what does Benu mean? The name refers to ancient Egypt’s mythological version of the phoenix.  It will be American cuisine with global influences.  We’re going to guess there will be some Korean influences.  Just a guess
