Two months ago, after a year and a half in business, Banq changed its name, its concept, and its chef. Its now called Ginger Park, and it serves small plates that put Asia front and center. The food is conceived by New York chef Patricia Yeo, who relocated to Boston for the new post. It is now a much stronger restaurant. Flavors are bolder. Dishes are downright addictive. Cocktails seem less sweet and more refreshing. And the menu is less serious, more fun. Its now the kind of place you want to return to regularly.
