Tuome
Chinese
Thomas Chen's East Village fine dining room sits behind bay windows with a backlit bar and purple seats that somehow avoid feeling precious. The menu moves between Asian traditions and classical technique in ways that feel considered rather than calculated, and the Michelin-starred kitchen earns its star without announcing it at every turn. Service knows the food cold but doesn't lecture. A neighborhood room that quietly does serious work.

Seared octopus
“Don’t miss the seared octopus served atop pork XO sauce or the lamb chops, served perfectly medium rare and finished with a shishito chimichurri, black pepper jus, and a dollop of onion soubise.”

Deep-fried buns
“Finally, deep-fried buns which arrive as Chinese “beignets” accompanied by vanilla ice cream laced with red bean paste, goat's milk caramel, and yuzu marmalade render dessert wholly unmissable.”
