MáLà Project

The Secret Rooftops & Patios Of NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"Mala Project is one of our favorite spots in the East Village for a casual meal with a couple of friends. Unfortunately, if you try to walk in without a reservation, you’ll probably have to wait - but there’s a hidden back patio where you can hang out and drink. It’s pretty much a really nice alley with flowers and chairs, and you could eat here every day without even realizing this outdoor space exists. In theory, you could even just come to Mala Project for some drinks on this patio. But do the right thing and get some dry pot here." - bryan kim
