ARCHER & GOAT and Harlem Restaurant Week

The second Harlem Restaurant Week will celebrate all the cultures and cuisines of this dynamic and diverse neighborhood from March 1-15 with select restaurants serving prix-fixe menus and specials for lunch and dinner. Joining the event for the first time this year is Archer & Goat, with a 3-course prix fixe menu highlighting their signature dishes and a complimentary glass of sparkling cava for $35.

Archer & Goat draws culinary inspiration from the husband-wife owners' Latin American and South Asian heritages with a unique menu that highlights flavors and ingredients from Puerto Rico, Ecuador and Bangladesh. Starters include Crispy Brussels Sprouts with garlicky cilantro chimichurri or an Arugula Salad with spicy chick peas, heart of palm, cucumbers and mint mojo. Entrée options include Chicken Vindaloo Arepas with cucumber raita and cotija cheese; Grilled Cauliflower with curry, olives and shishito peppers; and the A&G Burger, a 6oz beef patty stacked with melted queso blanco, roasted red onion, arugula and a housemade red pepper sofrito ketchup. For dessert, a glass of cava is paired with their House Doughnuts. See the full menu at www.harlemrestaurantweek.com/restaurants/archer-and-goat.
