Restaurants with unique food options like oxtail, oysters
Howdy! Visiting from Washington DC until Sunday evening (5th July) . What restaurants here have some unique vegan options? Yes, burgers, pizzas, pasta, sushi, chinese food, pho, ethipian, etc, are all great but I can get those in DC and have already tried some spots in NYC whenever come here.
I'm staying in Manhattan but visiting HAAM in Brooklyn which has vegan oxtails! Are there any places with oysters or unique vegan food like that? Or less represented cuisines in vegan restaurants. For example, I'm Cameroonian and would love some places with West African foods like egusi soup, eru, etc.
Vegan dessert shops or dessert shops with lots of vegan options other than cupcakes/muffins would be great too. Bonus points if any GF friendly spots as one of my friends are GF for allergy purposes.
I'm aware that NYC is unfortunately facing a similar epidemic like DC with the really good spots closing down, haha
My thanks in advance :)
