Hotel Chantelle – NYC

he8:  Outdoor atmosphere, going from day to night, at the same pace that she8 goes through sparkling Rose.

she8:  Seriously… sweetbreads? No thanks sweet cheeks. Now I don’t have to share my watermelon & mint salad! Every bite was heaven.

we8:  Pan Seared Diver Scallops (chanterelle mushrooms, English pea puree, crispy pancetta, pickled ramps), Beef  Sliders (aged white cheddar, applewood smoked bacon & chipotle ketchup served on a pretzel-glazed brioche bun), Organic Green Salad (bibb lettuce, watercress, wild arugula, fennel, haricot vert, lemon dressing), Watermelon Salad (watermelon, mint, cucumber, tomato, toasted pine nuts, ricotta cheese), Veal Sweetbreads (heirloom tomato and marrow fondue).

Sons of Essex – New York City

he8:  Essex taught them well. They play the right music, pour the right Scotch, and kill it in the kitchen. Adam would have never given up one of these ribs.

she8: Somethings you can get away with faking… but  character,  a scene, or food like this is not one of them! Only in the Lower East Side baby!

we8: Lobster Pot Pie, Truffle Mac & Cheese, Truffle Mushroom Pizza, Grilled Salmon, 12 hour marinated Braised Short Ribs, and Skirt Steak.
