Omar's Kitchen and Rum Bar

New York Bars With Holiday Rum Cocktails | Eater

"Chef Omar Walters draws on his Bronx upbringing and Jamaican heritage for a modern take on Caribbean flavors. (Think plantain gnocchi!) It’s going to be a real Jamaican holiday at this gorgeous space where the decor features vibrant colors and tropical plants. The menu is packed with intriguing options: Good luck resisting the coconut-crusted soursop-glazed salmon or fried catfish with red velvet waffles. Thankfully, you can drink your dessert with Omar’s Holiday Sorrel, which combines the tart and sweet hibiscus flavor of sorrel with BACARDÍ Reserva Ocho and red label wine. This all-time banger sips seasonal thanks to its warming spices like cloves and allspice." - Brendan McGinley
