Honey Badger

This is the place you want to write home about! And without question, one of New York City’s most unique dining experiences! I’ve been back multiple times and am consistently amazed by the creativity of dishes, quality of food, and knowledge of the chef / serving duo.

You just have to go for yourself! Honey Badger is 11/10 in my book!

This has been quite possibly the most extraordinary dining experience I've had in NY in half a decade. I can't speak highly enough of the small, passionate team creating a wild-for aged, multi-sensory, humanistic, and narratively rich haute cuisine experience.

I can’t upload the pastry dish because Google thinks the picture is inappropriate. It’s a

Honey Badger is a culinary gem , from the moment you step inside, you are transported into a world where gastronomy meets artistry, and every dish tells a story. Offering an extraordinary “wild to table” experience, this establishment has undoubtedly set a new standard for fine dining. What truly sets Honey Badger apart is their unwavering commitment to surprise and delight. The whole experience unfolds like a carefully choreographed performance, where each dish is presented with an air of anticipation, inviting guests to immerse themselves in the culinary journey.

Hidden, literally hidden, in an alley in Brooklyn is one of the most amazing restaurant experiences I have ever had: The Honey Badger - My Noma experience❗️ A chef couple, Fjölla and Juntas, assisted by their friend Rachelle, created an amazing restaurant where they present food that, besides being incredibly delicious, is sourced from amazing local farmers or foraged by themselves from the ocean or local fields. (…Oh, we got that grain from a guy who foraged it using a canoe from a lake in Ohio…) The menu is totally Kaiseki, influenced by the local seasons, vegetation, and fauna, and it changes frequently. They even offer a Water Pairing that includes water from a glacier, a maple tree, etc. The restaurant has been there for some 9 years. It has won multiple amazing awards but is still
