"Kabawa aims to elevate diner happiness through an immersive experience focused on joy rather than opulence, contrasting with trendier, luxury-focused restaurants."
"Chef Paul Carmichael channels his Bajan roots into Kabawa, transforming Caribbean culinary traditions into a unique dining experience that promotes a warm, inviting atmosphere."
Kabawa, a restaurant that opened in the East Village under the Momofuku group, seeks to uplift diners through a joyful dining experience rather than impress with luxury. Chef Paul Carmichael, drawing from his Bajan heritage, integrates Caribbean flavors and techniques from various islands, creating a distinctive atmosphere that fosters happiness. Although the three-course prix fixe is priced at $145, the experience leaves diners feeling uplifted and fulfilled, contrasting with other establishments that may appease wealth without nurturing the soul.
