New York City’s first-ever speakeasy & restaurant with a Thai heart and a Japanese soul, marrying the equally passionate Japanese (izakaya) and Thai (sum yadong) drinking cultures. Thus, 11 Tigers was born. Located in the heart of East Village, 11 Tigers is a great spot to grab a cocktail and some nibbles.
Apparently you might see people walking around with Tiger masks on, as the owner likes to encourage visitors to engage in cosplay. Fortunately, we didn’t have to experience an Tiger mask wearing during our time there, but consider yourself fairly warned!
Evidently, many of the cocktails at 11 Tigers are made with yadong, a traditional Thai liqueur infused with herbs that have been used as a healthy tonic for generations. In Thai, “ya dong” loosely translates into “pickled medicine”, so if you want to convince yourself the libations are somewhat healthy, go right head.
