"“When we first decided to make serious moves towards realizing HAGS, we talked a lot about the various restaurants we held in high regard … who we could look to in our pursuit of building a delightfully queer and fun space,” Justice says of this tropical comfort food spot in Hudson, New York. “Lil Deb’s Oasis was always the first name on every list we made. Their food, decor and ambiance, their hospitality—it’s all so dreamy. We have something of a restaurant crush on them. The Kinderhook Farm pork tamales with scallion, green sauce, and yassa, or the lamb merguez with red lentil dal, black garlic, kimchi, and cacao have me yearning for a quick trip out of the city! Please, if you do nothing else in this life, go eat at Lil Deb’s Oasis. It’s important.”" - sam stone 1
