A: A BLUE flame (EUPHORIA logo)
The same rules as FOODGASM apply, except this group is MAX 6 PPL and some Prepaid Events.
EUPHORIA - will be for smaller groups (6 or fewer), incl some Prepaid Events
FOODGASM - will be for larger groups (7 or more)

@i8NYC presents: EUPHORIA is our newest dining group where we meticulously curate harder to book reservations with no more than 8 members per dinner, plus Exclusive Perks and Discounts, VIP Events for Loyal Members! Some places do not allow for larger groups so these dinners will be smaller in scale which means your attendance counts that much more! Warning: OUR DINNERS FILL UP FAST!!! If you like explore new cuisines together with like minded food enthusiasts in a smaller group, look no further! We also rebirthed @i8NYC presents: FOODGASM where we used to go out EVERY NIGHT. You will come to find out that we are the most active group with the BEST places. We also started a new chapter with @i8NYC presents: AGAPE where if you love to serve others, you're in the right place! Heck, join all 3!

We are heading to LES! Opens 3/27! The group behind Superbueno (@superbuenonyc) and Katana Kitten (@katanakitten_nyc) is opening their newest bar, Cocktail Omakase (@cocktail_omakase_nyc), on the Lower East Side this Friday. Cocktail Omakase offers a 12 seat curated cocktail experience—a seasonally inspired tasting journey rooted in Tokyo's hospitality and precision. Partnering with Tokyo’s Bar Libre, we blend the artistry of Tokyo’s cocktail culture with New York City’s, offering guests an intimate, immersive omakase-style experience that is thoughtfully crafted, exquisitely presented, and always evolving.
It’s right there in the name: here you’ll be treated to an evening of small bites paired with four craft cocktails (or low-ABV or zero-proof drinks), created in Partnership with Tokyo’s famous Bar Libre (No.49 Asia's 50 Best Bars 2025). Bartenders are given the omakase-chef treatment here, so you’ll be able to watch your drinks being made right at the intimate counter.
With each drink comes a bite from Chef Phillip Kirschen-Clark, previously of Paradise Lost, ranging from a soy-marinated jammy egg with tomato crumble to clams baked down with sake, ginger and lemon. It is personalized even further as several ceramics and plates are crafted by Kirschen-Clark himself. Please be ON TIME! 😊
