Say "aloha" to a new modern Hawaiian eatery opening next week called Noreetuh from a trio of Per Se alums. Chung Chow, Jin Ahn and Gerald San Jose, are behind the 42-seat East Village space which ropes in influences from Chow's native Hawaii that span Filipino, Korean, and Japanese cuisines.

It's not easy to bring something new and different to the table in this town, but Chow's expertly-composed offerings seem to qualify as exactly that.
