The latest in Jean Georges' restaurants is undoubtedly my new favorite. The food is sublime - with simple dishes that have outstanding flavor.
The best way to sample the food is by sharing several plates. There are too many wonderful things on the menu to limit oneself. I went back twice over two days and nothing disappointed, quite the opposite.
The best dishes were the ones that I expected the least out of. Pistachio pesto with whole wheat pasta and julienned squash blossoms had outstanding flavor in what could have been such an average dish.
A salad with strawberries and fresh goat cheese (above) blended sweet with slightly bitter for a nice way to start to the meal.
Pizza and house-cut fries from the lunch menu (above).
The bland housemade ricotta ravioli with herbs and tomato sauce (above) was the least appealing dish.
The sundae with salted caramel ice cream, candied peanuts and popcorn and whipped cream was a delightful surprise. The flavors worked perfectly to taste like a cool box of Cracker Jack. This is not to be missed.
Vegetarian entrees run about $25 and appetizers and small plates about $16.
