"Katana Kitten, a Japan-inspired bar in the West Village, serves some extremely impressive cocktails, made with things like salted plum, pandan, and matcha. But don’t skip the food—there’s a teriyaki smashburger served with nori fries, and a mortadella katsu sando on squishy milk bread. You could totally come here before or after dinner—or this could just be dinner." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah
