9 Great Places To Drink Sake In NYC - New York - The Infatuation

"The aforementioned king of sake (Bon Yagi) also owns this all-day cafe in the East Village. Hi-Collar stands out from the rest of the bars on this guide because you can come for breakfast or lunch and enjoy omurice, tea, and katsu sandos, then return to the narrow bar space for shochu, whisky, plum wine, and sake later. Hi-Collar only serves four options for sake by the cup, but they’re available in different styles that correlate to the percentage that the rice has been polished down (respectively called daiginjo, ginjo, and honjozo)." - hannah albertine
