Kin Gin Review - Lower East Side - New York - The Infatuation

"The skylight at Kin Gin on the Lower East Side is so large, that on sunny days you could get a tan indoors. But you shouldn't just come to this Japanese restaurant and bar in the Hotel on Rivington for some vitamin D. Their cocktail menu has some creative drinks—like a spectacularly boozy combo of yogurt, gin, Rhum JM, cucumber, and lemongrass—and an entire G+T section themed on various countries. Get something to eat too, focusing on the heavier stuff: karaage, or tontoro, a fatty grilled pork jowl with house-made miso and peanuts that’s as nutty as certain Eddie Murphy movies. The raw fish items, like amberjack in blood orange sauce, are good, but at $20-plus, a bit small for the price. photo credit: Will Hartman photo credit: Will Hartman photo credit: Will Hartman" - Will Hartman
