"Sometimes, you look at the menu at Angel’s Share and think, “No way they can pull this off.” Ingredients they’ve been known to use include cream cheese, pistachio milk, and soy sauce powder. And you know what? That soy sauce powder works really nicely with rye and umami bitters. The original East Village Angel’s Share closed in 2022, but now you can find them in a narrow basement on Grove Street in the West Village. Standing isn’t allowed, and they don’t allow groups larger than four, so this definitely isn’t a partytime bar, but if you want to drink something entirely unique, grab a little booth in the candlelit room." - bryan kim, neha talreja, sonal shah, willa moore
