NEW YORK NEW YORK: Lunch at The Breslin


  
ACE Hotel: The Breslin Bar and Restaurant. April Bloomfield and Ken Friedman, owners of The Spotted Pig, opened their latest Michelin starred restaurant, The Breslin, inside Ace Hotel. The hearty, meat-centric menu emphasizes artisanal products, small growers and farmers, and seasonality. The Breslin menu embraces "nose-to-tail" cuisine methodologies and offers handmade terrines, sausages and charcuterie. Rich, salty, roasted flavors predominate. Room service is available 24 hours a day.
