November 2017

NEW YORK

In November, this food-loving editor turns to thoughts of comfort eating. To my mind, there is nothing that takes the chill out of a winter Wednesday like a generous bowl of noodle soup (Taiwanese beef noodle soup—for breakfast!— happily slurped at Rice & Gold), a decadent dish of truffled mac ’n’ cheese (Del Frisco’s Grille) or the buttermilk-dipped fried chicken at Birds & Bubbles (I had that over a year ago, and I am still thinking about it). This city is a fine enabler of all my food cravings: When I am looking for generous portions of hearty cooking, these types of places call to me. But, at other times, I might opt for elegant flavors served as edible art. In which case, I splurge on favorites like Gabriel Kreuther, Le Bernardin, Gotham Bar and Grill or even Per Se. But for now, with temperatures dipping fast, hot soups and crispy chicken call my name—and I know just where to find it all.

FOOD

DINE & DO GOOD

The Glaziers’ Grand Central Terminal steak house, on the balcony of the main concourse, offers juicy steaks to diners and great viewing of the crowds below.

TV newscaster Bob Woodruff’s charity for veterans Since 2014, the Bob Woodruff Foundation, cofounded by the award-winning ABC News reporter to support veterans and their families, has been producing Dine Out for Heroes, an initiative in conjunction with New York Comedy Festival’s Stand Up for Heroes fundraising concert. Restaurants in the city are asked to donate $1 per every diner on Veteran’s Day (Nov. 11): Money raised funds programs for returning soldiers and their loved ones.

“We owe it to them to recognize their sacrifices and to empower them to succeed,” says Woodruff, who, while reporting in Iraq in 2006, sustained a brain injury, which is what motivated him and his wife, Lee, to seek ways to give back to the military community. Dine Out for Heroes is produced with restaurateurs Penny and Peter Glazier of Glazier Works and with New York Comedy Festival founders Caroline Hirsch and Andrew Fox.—Sonia Weiser 14

IF YOUR PALATE is ready for the flavors of America’s melting pot, you’re in the right city. Name a cuisine, and you’ll find an outpost here. From Malaysian street food to Icelandic cod, we have it all. For a small, around-the-world sampling, here are eight restaurants that you won’t soon forget.

Union Square’s Laut (Malay for “sea”) is a cheerfully decorated go-to place for a taste of Southeast Asia. A mural painted over an exposed brick wall depicts a brightly colored sea serpent, birds and flowers. Street-food signs hang from the ceiling, giving the ample space a fun atmosphere. Street food here, though, includes such delicacies as a rice crepe with shrimp, crunchy onion, chopped peanuts, plum and soy sauce. Long green beans can arrive in a miniature wheelbarrow. Singaporean and Thai-inspired dishes make for a packed menu that incorporates seasonal ingre-

dients. Chicken satay is tender and spicy.

Nasi lemak, the national Malaysian dish, combines coconut and chicken in a kicky, chilies-based sambal sauce. Coconut rice is sweetly addictive, and the coconut pudding is served in a coconut.

Hakubai, an elegant Japanese restaurant in the Kitano Hotel, offers kaiseki, a seven-course feast for the senses selected

by Chef Yukihoro Sato (though you can also order from the menu). Marinated tilefish, kelp with herring roe, and grilled (in front of you) wagyu steak are sensational. Only the freshest ingredients are used, with fish flown in daily from Japan. The Zen-inspired decor includes Asian artwork complemented by artfully arranged flowers. Traditional rice screens separate dining areas, and servers, who wear kimonos, explain each course. Chef Sato mines magic.

Gato, Spanish for cat, is named after

the ginger feline who befriended owner/ chef Bobby Flay as he was waiting to see this massive space for the first time. The genial tabby weaved through his legs and into foodie history. The signature paella, grilled octopus and seafood are all notable.

Spanish dishes rely heavily on garlic, cumin, red pepper and chili powder. Try the spicy chickpea and avocado dip for a starter, or the scrambled eggs with almond romesco.

Fromage blanc cheesecake with apricot pine crust and crostata with vanilla black pepper gelato soothe with a peppery twist.

The lively bar is worth a visit as well, usually filled with a mixed-age crowd.

Lupulo, a nautically themed casual Portuguese restaurant offers all manner of goodness from the sea. Solid wood chairs are more comfortable than they look.

Portuguese olive oil, used to flavor many dishes, has a sweet nuttiness. Try Portuguese zimbro soft cheese, smoky country ham, carrots and cauliflower. Bread is from Balthazar Bakery, favored by New Yorkers.

Savory cod croquettes are moist and delicate. For a cocktail, opt for the piri piri margarita, tangy and thirst-quenching, or a craft beer like Brooklyn Brewery’s Cuvée No. 4 pale ale. For dessert, taste the national pastry, pastéis de nata—yummy, flaky custard tarts. A glass of port completes the voyage nicely.

If your party likes the idea of eating without forks, and you’re curious about Ethiopian cuisine, then head to Awash, a modestly decorated, two-decade-old institution near Columbia University, named for the Ethiopian tributary of the Blue Nile.

The kitchen is awash in African spices that season the lamb, beef, chicken and vegetables to your desired heat intensity. Azifa is a mixture of fresh lentils, red onions, hot African mustard, cardamom and lime. Doro wat is the tasty signature stewed chicken.

Scoop it up with spongy injera bread with its tangy, sourdough lift.

Mr. Chow is not your typical Beijing noodle joint. It’s a swanky place with good manners on display from water servers to waiters. Wear your fancy clothes, and enjoy the immense room adorned with seasonal flowers in elegant vases and rotating mod-

ern artwork. Champagne will be offered more than once by waiters in formal wear, who treat you like royalty. Forks, not chopsticks are used. Chicken satay derives from an original family recipe and crispy duck lives up to its name.

Yefsi Estiatorio is a family-friendly restaurant that serves sea-based recipes from chef/owner Christos Christou’s childhood on Cyprus, with a twist. The grilled octopus is tender with a smoky char. Zucchini and eggplant chips have a satisfying salty crunch. Baked feta is swoon-worthy, and a jumbo crab cake is loaded with crab chunks. Many of the dishes are cooked with Greek cabernet, offering hints of spices, cherries and apricots. Baklava, walnut cake and full-bodied Greek yogurt with walnuts and a honey drizzle is flavor-rich. Meanwhile, the ample interior includes a covered patio that resembles a greenhouse.

A relative newcomer to the foodie scene, Icelandic Fish & Chips is a bright, spacious organic restaurant that dishes up spelt-fried—no white flour here—seasonal fish from Iceland. If you need more salt, the Icelandic unrefined salt on each table will do the trick. A blackboard indicates what seasonal fish is available that day. If they have wolffish, try it: The cod is tender with a light crispy coating. Chips are wedge-cut, salted and roasted potatoes. Finish with the skyr yogurt with blueberries and cream.

IN NEW YORK, the holiday spirit is hard to ignore—the city isn’t known for its subtlety when it comes to jingling bells and red velvet bows—and you’d be hard-pressed to find a better place to do all your gift shopping. With its status as a foodie’s eden, New York is the ideal location to find presents for your favorite gourmand.

LIBATIONS GALORE The tristate area isn’t exactly Napa Valley, but New York does have its own vineyards, breweries and distilleries that produce quality wines, beers and liquors and boast local labels. Astor Wines & Spirits in the East Village carries affordable wines from Long Island and the Finger Lakes and Hudson Valley regions. The store, housed in the lower level of a 19th-century landmark building, also stocks whiskey, bourbon and brandy straight from the Empire

An assortment of pastries from Veniero’s

State. Of course, the selection extends far beyond New York, so if you’d rather pick up something from the West Coast or overseas, you’ll have no trouble finding the perfect bottle. If you’re thinking about shipping your gift, keep in mind that not every state allows alcohol delivery. So while you can purchase from Astor Wines online, you may have to give your friend their gift in person instead. For your friends who liken themselves to alcohol connoisseurs, surprise them with a bottle of a Park Avenue Liquor Shop exclusive—the store, which has been open since 1934, stocks entire casks of the staff’s favorites in limited quantities. For beer enthusiasts with a soft spot for Brooklyn suds, Brooklyn Brewery sells branded apparel, barware, glasses, wall decor, and other odds and ends like beach towels, buttons and tote bags, all with the brewery’s signature cursive B. And

Gifts for the Gourmet

Irresistible Italian pastries, authentic NYC bagels and bialys and fine knives to slice it and eat it—these gifts will make any eager eater happy.

PHOTOS: ZABAR’S, COURTESY ZABAR’S; THE BRONX BREWERY CAP, COURTESY THE BRONX BREWERY; BONNIE SLOTNICK COOKBOOKS, MARIA BOYADJIEVA

if you happen to be in or near the borough of the Bronx, you can pick up similarly yeasty products at The Bronx Brewery like hats, growlers and scarves. Regardless of which brewery you visit, treat yourself to a pint while there!

JOE ON THE GO In New York, regardless of the season, few sights are as ubiquitous as a cup of steaming coffee. Buy your loved ones beans by the bag from Brooklyn-based Toby’s Estate Coffee or enable their caffeine addiction with the roaster’s subscription service and have up to five bags delivered straight to their door on a weekly or biweekly basis.

Brooklyn Roasting Company also has subscription packages, bags of beans and special BRC-themed merch for sale (and furthermore, ships internationally).

SUGARY TREATS Surprise your favorite sweet tooth with a shipment of desserts of all shapes and sizes. Veniero’s, the Italian pasticceria founded in the 19th century and known for its satisfyingly crunchy biscotti, rich cheesecakes and classic cannoli, ships a sizable selection of their freshly baked goods nationwide. Pie devotees will be ever so grateful to receive any of Petee’s Pie Company’s packs of four, eight or 12 mini pies made primarily with ingredients from the New York area. There are plenty of flavors to choose from, including lemon poppy seed, Hudson Valley apple, New York cherry and toasted almond, and if you’re feeling indecisive, you can even compile your own pack and include one of each.

BOXED NOSHES Give out-of-towners a real taste of the Old World from two of New York’s 20th-century holdovers, Zabar’s and Russ & Daughters.

Both are go-tos for traditional Eastern European, Jewish fare and sell individual

goodies and gift packages fit for a Sabbath brunch—bagels, lox, babka, rugelach, dried fruit and all things schmearable. While they each offer premade baskets, Zabar’s assortment of themed boxes is unparalleled. For the upcoming holidays, consider the Hanukkah basket, complete with a menorah, candles and a dreidel on top of enough chocolate, nuts and cookies to last all eight nights, or opt for a year-round favorite like the New York breakfast basket or Zabar’s New York box. Chelsea Market Baskets, the ultimate one-stop shop for gift baskets, peddles everything from New York stateshaped cutting boards and sets of artisanal cocktail bitters to fruit baskets, cheese palettes, boxes of caramels and many a wicker basket stuffed to the brim with crowdpleasing snacks, sweets, knickknacks and picnic must-haves. To transport your loved ones to the cavernous, aroma-filled halls of Chelsea Market, consider gifting one of CMB’s curated Chelsea Market baskets heaped with delectables made on-site by one of their many neighbors.

INEDIBLES When you can’t keep track of preferred tastes, allergies or dietary restrictions, you can play it safe by gifting kitchenware or dining necessities. Fishs Eddy, near Union Square, stocks dishes with saucy sayings, whimsical designs and vintage patterns at affordable prices. The store’s New York lines of merch, which feature the city’s landmarks in ink-doodled form, are instantly lovable even for those who’ve settled elsewhere. Whisk, located just a few streets north of Fishs Eddy, has an array of kitchen tools for professional, amateur and stick-itin-the-microwave chefs.
