Mr. Fuk's Rice Box in GTA IV.

Mr. Fuk's Rice Box is a Korean restaurant featured in Grand Theft Auto IV.

Description

Located at the Lyndon Avenue-Boyden Avenue intersection in the Korean enclave of Alderney City, Alderney in Liberty City, the restaurant serves a front for the Korean Mob.

Notably, the restaurant features an elaborate interior encompassing a two-floor, oriental-themed dining area (complete with a central atrium), and an office accessible from both the second floor dining area or a door to the back lot reachable from the outside via a ladder. The interior is specifically used during during "Dining Out", when the player is ordered by Gambetti Don Jon Gravelli to kill Young-Guk Kim, a Korean gangster, at the restaurant; as the player enters the building a firefight ensues in the dining area, eventually resulting the player chasing Young-Guk Kim out the back of the building. The interior of the building is otherwise accessible only during multiplayer.

The restaurant is also a venue during outings with friends or girlfriends in GTA IV as well as The Lost and Damned and The Ballad of Gay Tony. In GTA IV, Brucie Kibbutz, Dwayne Forge and Roman Bellic are fond of this restaurant.

Trivia

  • The "Fuk" in the restaurant's name is an apparent pun of the curse word "fuck". This not-so-subtle pun has been made more obvious when Jon Gravelli has a coughing fit and says "fuck" right after he mentions Mr. Fuk's Rice Box.
  • Although the restaurant is Korean-themed, it serves Chinese cuisine.
  • In The Ballad of Gay Tony, the back lot of the restaurant is the drop-off point for the Drug Wars side mission in Alderney.
