Description

Bananas, a New American restaurant from chef-owners Chris Ng (previously of Blue Ribbon and Bond St) and Kyaw Lwin (previously of Yakiniku Futago, Hasalon and Michelin-starred Shmoné), is located in the East Village. Bananas is an expression of the team’s take on Asian American food, incorporating classic Asian flavors with Western cuisine. The phrase “Bananas” has previously been used as a slur to describe Asian Americans who are ‘yellow’ presenting but culturally white due to their upbringing in America. Bananas offers a signature menu of American favorites with elements of Asian cooking.
