Friday, September 4, 2026, 3:00 AM - 6:00 AM · The Normandie Club, Koreatown, Los Angeles
The Orca Pop-Up brings a Koreatown special sandwich to The Normandie Club, featuring crispy pork belly tossed in ssamjang, garlic confit, and Korean pear slaw on a milk bun.
Tucked into the historic Hotel Normandie in Koreatown, this place is low-key luxe: dark woods, amber glow, slick leather booths, and a horseshoe bar perfect for flying solo or people-watching. Their cocktails riff on the classics. Expect riffs, tweaks, drafts, and enough care that you’ll notice the little things (like the signature martini section). The crowd is locals, drink-savvy but not showy, winding down from work or stepping out for a serious drink rather than a nightclub frenzy.
Dry vermouth, St-Germain, grapefruit & lemon juices, seltzer.
Old Fashioned with coconut-infused bourbon, apple brandy, and spiced almond.
Jamaican rum, apple brandy, lime. A classic with a subtle twist.
White rum, dark rum, orgeat, lime, curacao. Tropical classic.
