Willow opens in Chelsea on Friday, January 15th. Beyond Sushi's Executive Chef, Guy Vaknin, and his wife Tali are the minds behind this new vegan concept that brings innovation to classic American comfort cuisine. Willow launches with delivery and takeout to start, and will open for indoor dining when restrictions are lifted.
“It's been a tough year for New York, and restaurants have taken a big hit. We’re looking into the future and are committed to our vision of sharing plant-based food with our community. I saw a need for vegan comfort food, especially amid the ongoing pandemic, and wanted to bring my take on that to NYC,” Willow chef and owner, Guy Vaknin, told VegOut.
The new all-vegan eatery will offer dishes like porcini chick’n marsala, cheeseburger sliders, and steak frites. In addition to savory bites, desserts like a vanilla bean cashew cheesecake and bananas Foster cake will also be up for grabs. Look for drinks like fresh juices made with carrot, apple, ginger, and coconut!
