Openings

Keith McNally’s and Ken Friedman’s New Ones Are Christened

Yes, we’ve pretty much shown you the full monty where Minetta Tavern is concerned (see our interior slideshow here), but here’s a detail we have yet to see, and indeed it’s currently visible (ever so enticingly) only through the plastic sheeting that’s still up — the windows have now been stenciled! Yay! And while we’re reveling in slow reveals, Ken Friedman and April Bloomfield’s restaurant in the ACE Hotel will open in June (the original plan was February) — it’ll be called the Breslin (after its building) and will serve “pan-European cuisine with an emphasis on meat dishes.” (Indeed, Bloomfield had earlier promised “rib roasts, racks of veal, lots of potted meat, and some terrines.”)
