Kafana NYC

05/27/2023

Through the waves of Wall Street crisis, Hurricane Sandy, Lika leaving and coming back, Gabrielle Hamilton’s addiction to Russian Salad, Covid Pandemic, natural wine bandits’ crusades, New York Times’ revealing truths, staffing a professional dentist and discussing “dinner and a dentist” marketing options if all goes wrong - WE HAVE REACHED 15! Kafana is at its most UNBELIEVABLE thanks to all of you!!!

Greetings from our eccentric front of the house association, behind the scenes hard-rock kitchen band, and of course our smart, original, dedicated, hard-working, full of character, against everything, with impeccable taste in wine - owner, who owns Kafana and it’s his, ok? Not even his wife’s because he opened it before they got married, so she has no say in anything, not even Instagram or a bunch of other stuff. It’s Coja’s Kafana, so address all birthday envelopes to him. See you soon and THANK YOU!!! ⚡️🙏🍾🤸

St. Tryphon (Свети Трифун), а Saint full of softness and delicacy, is known as the patron of winegrowers. On this day, they go out to their vineyards to prune the vines and pour wine over it, believing they’ll bear the sweetest fruit, celebrating fertility!
It is also believed that it is with this day that we welcome the Spring, awakening of the nature and the most profound feeling we’re capable of - love.
Open your hearts and have a glass of wine ❤️
Dimi & Duća are waiting for you with suggestions!
