A NIGHT WITH THE BEST NEW RESTAURANTS
Bon Appetit magazine presented its Ten Best New Restaurants of 2017 at an event September 6th at Spring Studios in Manhattan. All ten restaurants were present and each offered attendees one or two tasty and interesting small plates.
The highlight of the evening for me was the Thai chili sweet corn dish with tiny shrimp and peanuts that was offered by Giant restaurant from Chicago. It was spicy and complex and had just the right texture. Another favorite of mine was the chicken liver pate on toast with blueberry jam, mustard seed and raw pistachio from Spring restaurant in Marietta, Georgia. Although I was disappointed that the #1 new restaurant, Turkey and the Wolf from New Orleans, didn't serve the delicious-looking sandwich that was featured in Bon Appetit magazine, they did serve a very tasty wedge salad with blue cheese dressing that was sprinkled on top with bacon and "everything bagel toppings". Each of the best new restaurants are detailed

In addition to the ten new restaurants, generous portions of pork Milanese, grapefruit salad, and prime rib with cream spinach were served throughout the evening, and there were tables with white stone oysters and President brand cheeses, as well as several bars and wine stations offering tasty beverages. It was a fun crowd and a terrific evening!
