Midtown Manhattan Munchies
Check out Patch Contributor Ann Bryan’s 4 new local restaurants that will “shake up your post-work routine in midtown Manhattan.”
The Elevation of the Evelyn!
We always knew that the Evelyn was an exquisite hotel featuring great service and wonderful food. But now part of that has been recognized in Grub Street’s Power Rankings, with Leonelli Taberna – chef Jonathan Benno’s creative works – making it to Number 5 of the list! Here it was described as:
“Former Lincoln chef and one-time Thomas Keller protégé Jonathan Benno is going for a more unbuttoned spirit and Roman-ish food in the newly renovated Evelyn Hotel. Just in time for 90 degree–plus days, there are cold spritzes and a beautifully chilled frutti di mare.”
Yes, the New York weather right now definitely calls for some airconditioned delights!
Eating at the Triumph Hotels
At the Triumph hotels in New York, as well as being centrally located in the hubbub of the city, for those looking for quiet kickback time there are a variety of eateries to choose from.
Take a look at the Hotel Edison for example. The Bond 45 New York Italian Kitchen & Bar is a dream. The restaurant is the original former historic Bond clothing Store (1948-77) which re-opened in Shimmie Horn’s Hotel Edison. Over the years there, it earned a reputation for its delicious “rotating selection of market vegetables,” but for those carnivores among us, don’t worry, the veal chops are to die for. And then of course there’s the delicious pizza and homemade pasta too.
Moving over to Bryant Park, we have the Triomphe Restaurant, conveniently located in another one of Shimmie Horn’s hotels, the Iroquois. It’s comfortable and relaxed and boasts an “understated elegance” in its design relaxing diners as soon as they enter. You can order any meal from there and choose from a wonderful French-based selection including the Epicurean Tasting Menu.
There are more of course, offered at the Triumph hotels, but excuse us for just giving you a “taste” of what is on offer.
