Kalye

Snack your way through the menu at Kalye, a Filipino street food restaurant on the Lower East Side’s Broome Street. The restaurant focuses on flavors and ingredients like ube, adobo and lemongrass, and while the meat is not to be missed—from pork and ube sliders to sizzling shumai—there is also plenty of vegan and vegetarian menu call outs like crispy lumpia. The LES Southeast Asian spot offers an energizing environment to bring a few friends to, but also doubles as an art gallery for local neighborhood artists and those from the Philippines. Stop in for various dishes and stay to shop art for sale, where all proceeds benefit the creatives involved.
