There’s times in life when chance or luck strikes and you find people who just seem like a perfect fit for the community you want to live in. We as had one of these lucky strikes when we met C-Y and Shane from . Although we all lived here at the same time, we didn’t meet in nyc. We first met them at the pop ups they did when we’d travel to the bay (Rebecca’s day job at the time had her traveling to SF kinda often) They were killing it at their pop ups and dinners. Later, when they’d visit from the Bay, we got to feed them and hang out here too. We love their flavors and process - Shane was our sourdough guru during covid!
When we found out they’d be in town for one last NYC pop up we knew that not even a would stop us from getting to see them and enjoy their food one more time.
The house was packed, no surprise. We were lucky to get a 4 top w/ our friends and .
Conversation was great and the team at killed it as always. We forgot to take pictures of a few of the dishes but we ordered everything and all of it was amazing. Grabbed a cookbook (you should too, it’s beautiful)!
We’re excited to see what adventures await this duo with their move to Singapore. Hopefully we’ll be able to come visit one day. Sending you guys so much love!!
Xoxo,
Chris & Rebecca

What people say
When it comes to barbecue restaurants, there's nothing quite like the smoky, savory flavors that come from slow-cooked meats. But what if you're looking for a plant-based option? That's where Monk's Meats comes in. This vegetarian and vegan restaurant on Starr Street is inspired by traditional BBQ techniques, but everything they make is completely plant-based and dairy-free.
One of the things that sets Monk's Meats apart is their commitment to using high-quality ingredients and spices. They load up on so many spices for their dishes, like their chorizo-stuffed peppers or tamales with jackfruit and BBQ sauce. And if you're looking for something sweet to balance out all that smokiness, they've got you covered with their vegan donuts.
But it's not just about the food at Monk's Meats - it's also about the atmosphere. Whether you're stopping by for brunch or grabbing a bite at one of their pop-up events around town, you'll find a fun and welcoming environment where everyone can enjoy delicious food together.
So if you're looking for a unique twist on classic BBQ flavors, head over to Monk's Meats on Starr Street. You won't be disappointed!
