Socarrat Paella Bar – Chelsea
Make sure you scrape off the crunchy rice (socarrat) at the bottom, that’s the real good stuff. Like that expat hangout, Socarrat specializes in traditional tapas like gambas al ajillo and patatas bravas, and entrées focus largely on paellas and fideuàs. Communal-table and bar seating are meant to evoke Sunday dinner at a friend’s house. Socarrat has three lively NYC locations, each showcasing a different part of Spanish culture. The Chelsea restaurant has Spanish art and a peaceful garden patio, which is great for outdoor dining. At Socarrat Nolita, there are Flamenco shows and decor inspired by bulls and the “language of the fan.” Midtown East brings the fun of Valencia’s Las Fallas festival with a vibrant bar scene.
