SP, at the prices they charge I would like stuff that isn't seasonally driven.

"market-driven and locally sourced seasonal menus." why even bother announcing this anymore? Doesn't everyone do this now?

If I wanted "Carrot Broth with black pearl tapioca and hints of curry," I would have gone to one of those Hindu places on Lexington Avenue in the twenties.

"Nantucket Bay Scallop Tartar with Tsar Nicolai caviar and argan-yuzu vinaigrette; and Carrot Broth with black pearl tapioca and hints of curry." Do people really eat this crap? I asked for "Veliki Kniaz" Ivan III of Muscovy Tsarist caviar and they serve and charge me for Nicolai sturgeon eggs. This culinary world is coming to an end.

OK OK the space is nice but $12.50 for a hamburger? Isn't that a bit steep?

^ But not before saying what a knockout this room is. This is like a shot aimed right at the Four Seasons.
