    Midtown office slaves: Looking to unwind with an end-of-week drink? The people behind Stone Rose Lounge have opened the destination cocktail lounge Forty Eight, which we awarded four stars in this week’s bar review. The drinks may cost a pretty penny, but that’s what you work for, right?

    Seafood specialist Ed Brown lends his name to Jeffrey Chodorow’s new Lincoln Center–area venture, Ed’s Chowder House. (Though Jay Cheshes thinks it should be renamed Ed’s Lobster Bar, as Brown’s lobster roll is “on par with the best in the city.”) Enjoy these extra photos, and then find out what else to order in our three-star review.

    The Feed first look: Bar Henry

    Next week, Cafe Henri owners Winston Kulok and Carole Bergman Kulok will open a new American bistro and wine bar in the brick-lined cellar that once housed Zinc Bar. Wine consultant John Slover (Cru, Blue Hill) has assembled a list of roughly 230 bottles of mostly old-world wines, which are broken into three sections: by-the-glass, market and reserve lists. To encourage tasting, drinkers can purchase half of any bottle on the market list—which, unlike the reserve selection, tends toward younger wines from lesser-known regions—for half price. Among the stiffer beverages are a series of cocktails named for Gotham’s famous Henrys, such as the Henry Hudson (rye and ginger ale), while the food menu covers standards like roasted chicken, steak and mushroom-barley soup. Take a look at the slide show above, and the menu after the jump. Read more »

    DLS at Oceana

    Posted in Eat Out by Eat Out on November 6th, 2009 at 3:42 pm

    Cold weather may make you think of braised meats and root vegetables, but there’s another edible cornerstone of the fall-winter diet: glistening fresh shellfish, plucked straight from frigid waters. Oysters, for instance, spawn during the summer, and are at their flavor peak right now. To celebrate the bounty, join Time Out’s Dining & Libation Society for its next event on Monday, November 16, at Oceana’s expansive new raw bar, hosted by Eat Out writer Daniel Gritzer and executive chef Ben Pollinger. What you’ll get for the all-inclusive $75 ticket: a seafood dinner including raw clams and oysters both raw and marinated (plus an oyster-shucking demo), scallop sashimi, fluke tartare, poke trio, grilled New Orleans shrimp, salmon burgers and fried calamari, along with Bulldog gin cocktails, wine pairings from Frederick Wildman and dessert. Seating is limited, so reserve your spot here.

    Batali on the changes at Del Posto

    Posted in Eat Out by Eat Out on November 5th, 2009 at 4:31 pm

    Leisurely lunches aren’t particularly voguish in a parched economy, but Del Posto’s new three-course prix fixe (Wed–Fri 11:30am–2:30pm) could be worthy of nixing your noontime brown bag. Just $29 buys an antipasto, either a pasta or meat course, and a dessert from the seasonal menu, which currently includes options like roasted autumn vegetables with Robiola and truffled hazelnuts and grilled lobster with gnocchetti.

    The new lunch deal also coincides with the removal of the more casual, “enoteca” portion of the restaurant, which will be converted to the sumptuous style of the rest of the space by the second week of December. Says the ponytailed maestro himself to the Feed, “We’re going to get our second Michelin star and a four-star New York Times review this year, and this is how we’re going to do it.”—M. Elizabeth Sheldon
