"Chances are, you’ve played with a cat before. And while you were playing with this cat, you might have encountered some catnip, sniffed it, and thought, “I wonder what that tastes like.” If you’d like to finally find out, go to Undercote. In order to get here, you enter the restaurant Cote, head down a flight of stairs, then walk into an extremely dark room filled with glass-enclosed displays of various plants. It feels like a cross between a nightclub and the nocturnal animal exhibit at your local zoo. The cocktail list is constructed like a field manual filled with illustrations of exotic-looking plants. Drinks are incredibly expensive ($20 and up, mostly), but there are also some one-of-a-kind beverages, such as one that incorporates catnip - which, it turns out, is weirdly delicious." - bryan kim
