Helmed by the first Malaysian chef to earn a Michelin star and using many ingredients imported from Malaysia, specialties include beef rendang and assam pedas, a spicy sour soup made with a chili-laced tamarind base.

Rasa also has a sushi menu which incorporates Malaysian flavors into sushi-like bites, serving up rolls stuffed with satay chicken or drizzled with sambal.

Food pairs to a Malaysian-inspired drinks list.

Located at 25 West 8th Street, Greenwich Village, NYC.
