"This upstairs den in Soho from mixology maven Audrey Saunders has long been on the must-visit list for cocktail aficionados. The large windows looking out to Houston Street provide amusement alongside modern alcoholic classics like the Earl Grey-infused gin martini. But don’t sleep on the zippy, vaguely Asian-influenced dishes, especially smoked trout deviled eggs and orange-glazed braised duck in crispy wonton cones." - Paul Schrodt
