This note is written for NYC residents and recent visitors.
David Bouley, The chef I admire most, had just introduced the latest 2011 menu. To welcome those new courses, he also renovated his bomb-shelter-like basement to a fancy doom of acho.
It does change the city.
There's nothing exciting in Bouley's new menu, unless you consider raised prices exciting. This makes Jean Georges, which also recreated several amazing new plates months before, finally become uncle DRE's top 1 recommended prix fixe lunch menu by far in Manhattan. In my personal opinion, it was Bouley.
Is Bouley kicked out of Major League? Not yet. Fortunately, you can still order those better "DATED" dishes here by paying "NEW ARRIVALS" prices - while recession still looms.
The only impressive improvement of new Bouley is its 600% faster serving speed. You don't need to worry about the hypoglycemia resulting from hell long-time hungry any more. Hallelujah.
oh today have to speak English??

為向 前輩在此發表的第一篇英文短篇致敬, 後進剛已分享到自己的FB上. 恭請知悉.
回覆刪除德先生高深的文學造詣和幽默的筆調,在英文短篇中無法展現,誠可惜…
回覆刪除I have to say, dated dishes and new arrival prices hit the spot... LOL
回覆刪除想必是中文輸入法出了問題
回覆刪除感覺是一篇酸味十足的文章啊,所以上菜速度變快的原因是什麼呢?
回覆刪除幽默感呢?

媽媽和老婆做的菜才可稱之為高級料理。

回覆刪除作者已經移除這則留言。
回覆刪除So did you ever visit any Tom Colicchio's joints? I'd like to see how his dishes get trashed sometimes : ) -- I assume you have watched some episodes of top chef....
回覆刪除前幾個禮拜去吃Bouley晚餐的tasting menu, 很喜歡餒...服務態度很好食物又好吃, 價格(跟同等級的相比)也很合理.
回覆刪除不過我沒有去吃過中餐, 可能以午餐的價錢來說CP值不夠吧...
Really good article. Thumbs up!
