One of the best meals I’ve had in years was at Lei, in Chinatown, recently. Annie Shi created a space that is cozy and warm. The wines are really interesting and showcase more untapped regions such as China and Mexico. The food from Chef Patty is unique and surprising. I love its minimalist aesthetic and maximalist flavor approach that all feels so comforting and approachable.
