 Although Jean-Georges Vongerichten often visits his numerous offspring around the world, he also spends time behind the ovens in the centerpiece of his empire. He keeps on enriching his impressive repertoire, translating his new ideas in dishes marked with his unique and unforgettable seal, emblematic of his image of distinction and hardy creativity. Appetizers like egg caviar, a slow-cooked egg topped with caviar, and Santa Barbara sea urchin lightly breaded with black bread crumbs belong to the sophisticated anthology as do entrées such as the slowly cooked cod, aromatic black beans, saké, cilantro and ginger or the gently smoked squab a l’orange, Asian pear and candied tamarind. There are so many of these delicacies to quote that this review could expand into a dictionary. Under executive chef Mark LaPico, meals here continue to produce breathtaking thrills. Vongerichten influences not only the kitchens and chefs under his employ, but what diners experience as haute cuisine, breaking down many preparations to the bare essence by employing oils infused with herbs and spices. At this restaurant, Vongerichten's relentless search for new flavors and vibrant, simple cuisine led him to introduce a range of wild edible plants. Expect the highest quality ingredients and risk-taking dishes like Maine lobster, glazed chestnuts, Espelette pepper and brandy butter. The wine list marries well with the cuisine and European-style service from a bygone era comes as an unexpected extra in such a sleek room: the expert servers often finish off dishes at tableside---cracking lobster, slicing meat or elegantly placing a garnish. The soothing design with its hand-laid mosaic floor of white marble and terrazzo, warm woods, taupe and high ceilings belong to in-demand architect, Adam Tihany. |
