HAGS

The 10 Best Queer-Owned Restaurants In NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"Hags is a tiny East Village spot that's billed as an American fine dining restaurant “by queer people, for all people.” The food on the six-course tasting menu is satisfying, and you may find deliciously daring experimental dishes like uni with sour cream and onion, a foot-long hot dog, or a Pringle made of carrot. But the food is also almost besides the point. What is central here is a sense of community and belonging. Be sure to check out the funhouse mirror—an interactive metaphor for gender dysmorphia—in the bathroom." - kenny yang, carina finn koeppicus, bryan kim, neha talreja, nikko duren, hannah albertine
