"Although Souen’s SoHo outpost closed in 2019, you can still order their iconic macro plate from the East Village location. Long favored by the fashion crowd, the wholesome dish comes with steamed kale, broccoli, kabocha squash, carrot, wakame, beans, and rice, plus your choice of dressing (get the miso-tahini). Request the restaurant’s craveable maze rice — brown rice mixed with marinated burdock, carrot, shiitake, and kombu — for an extra $2." - Emily J. Wilson
