"Las’ Lap is a narrow bar on Orchard Street with high ceilings, potted plants, floral bar stools, and a cocktail list that emphasizes ingredients like coconut, passionfruit, and rum. It’s a cool spot, and it’s ideal for when you want to catch up with a few people and hide from the massive crowds at other LES bars. It still gets pretty busy here, and you’ll probably find it hard to get a seat (it’s a small place), but you can call ahead if you want to reserve a table and eat some dinner. They serve things like oxtail, jerk chicken egg rolls, and wings." - neha talreja, bryan kim, hannah albertine, willa moore

"Come to Las’ Lap with a few people who talk about “fun,” and also actually have it. This Caribbean spot is first and foremost a cocktail bar (with a focus on rum), but they also serve doubles and wings with jerk tamarind BBQ sauce in their outdoor sidewalk area. Stop by any day starting at 5pm, or for Happy Hour between 5pm and 8pm Monday through Thursday." - hannah albertine
