Chorus Karaoke – Midtown West

Most of the karaoke spots in Korea Town don't allow kids at any time. Not so for Chorus Karaoke, which offers a daytime Sunday Family Special. For $60, up to six members of one family (the staff checks the IDs of the adults for the same last name!) get two hours of karaoke, a large fruit plate, a snack and unlimited soda. If you bring your own USB drive, you can even record your performance.
