Fabrice Renaudin and Nicolas Abello are taking the helm here, indulging in a seriously French menu; it's even written in French. Expect traditional classics like escargot with garlic and butter, moules mariniere, and frogs legs. The restaurant feels grand with yellow banquettes and an Art Nouveau ceiling. The vast patio overlooking New York Harbour will open in a few weeks.
The upmarket food court, Le District, is opening incrementally, but eventually will feature a range of 'districts' to fulfil most needs from wine or Parisian pastries to rotisserie meats and cheese. Also yet to open is the 28-seater chef’s counter from Barcelona-born El Bulli alum Jordi Valles, L’Appart.
Traditional French flavours and brushing up your culinary French vocabulary on the menu.
Slowly braised lamb shoulder, glazed carrots, young potatoes and celery. Daurade Tagine with tomatoes, capers, fennel confit, bok choy and eggplant in a spicy broth, cooked in earthware pot.
