About Us

The story of the red paper clip is about trading up from one item to the next, realizing a larger goal than previously achievable. Each trade made results in new possibilities

​

​

Our first trade was when we decided to devote ourselves to the hospitality industry to build our skill sets. Those skills made it possible to open our own restaurant. 

​

Red Paper Clip is an intimate, neighborhood restaurant located on Christopher Street in the West Village. Our menu is influenced by Chef/Owner Kevin Chen's Taiwanese-American heritage, his upbringing in Queens and his time spent traveling and cooking
