Opens Friday at 5:30 PM

East Village, New York

"eat yuh guts full" — and then go back for more

Chef Paul Carmichael turned Momofuku's old Ko space into a "House of Yes": a warm, soca-filled refuge where Caribbean hospitality meets playful fine dining. The three-course prix fixe roams from flaky roti and pepper shrimp to braised goat and funfetti flan, all served by cooks in tie-dye aprons.
