What the New San Domenico May Look Like

Owner Tony May’s description of the new San Domenico may have been evocative, but there’s nothing like Sims-style computer graphics to really capture the feeling of what a restaurant is going to look like. In the renderings — obtained by Eater — transparent figures float throughout the pictures, like so many spirits of restaurants past, each one no doubt murmuring conversational inanities just beyond the reach of living patrons’ hearing. Certainly, the restaurant looks a lot more modern (maybe even too much so) than we would have expected, but May sounded like he intended to go for broke with his new place, and it looks like he has.

The Big Apple Barbecue Block Party, Danny Meyer's annual, free mega-event in Madison Square Park, just announced the participants for June 7 and 8, and we are pleased to see familiar, delicious names. Ed Mitchell of North Carolina will do his legendary whole-hog BBQ, and Chris Lilly of Big Bob Gibson's in Decatur, Alabama, will be on hand with his pulled pork. Jimmy Hagood of Black Jack BBQ in Charleston, South Carolina, is a notable newcomer, bringing his state's distinctive mustard-based sauces to a city more familiar with the North Carolina tradition. The New York contingent consists of Blue Smoke, Hill Country, Dinosaur, and the rarely mentioned but worthwhile Rack and Soul.
