Celebrate HoQ's New Patio With 3-Course Menu
HoQ, an East Village restaurant, has created a patio space to help facilitate social distancing. It also created a new three-course
menu to commemorate the addition. For $99, you can get a meal for two with a bottle of rose while dining al fresco.
Appetizer options include a bibb lettuce salad (red radish, herbs, asparagus, Lee's Green Tomatoes, lemon juice and olive oil) or bison empanadas (black beans, bison, white cheddar cheese and hot sauce). Grab a surf and turf (hanger steak and shrimp), Alaskan halibut or a vegetarian dish (crepes and veggies) for an entree. The dessert is a bit of a surprise—a daily chef's pick.
HoQ is open for dine-in lunch today and tomorrow at 11 a.m.-2 p.m. and dinner at 5-10 p.m. Takeout is available as well. Make reservations here.
