Earlier today, we saw what Eric and Donald Trump Jr. eat at their endless ribbon cuttings. So how about Ivanka? Tonight her meal will be prepared by the chefs of Il Mulino, if an invite we’ve received is any indicator. Reporters are being limoed out to the Taj Mahal in Atlantic City to celebrate the fall opening of Il Mulino New York (a white-tablecloth approximation of the original, complete with tuxedoed waiters) and Trattoria Il Mulino, the casual counterpart with an open kitchen.

At one point Smith and Mills owner Matt Abramcyk was toying with the idea of opening a Skee-Ball bar in the financial district, but now it looks like he has a bigger project on the horizon — in Atlantic City! The Times reports that he and his Beatrice Inn partner, Paul “brother of the actress Chloë” Sevigny, are teaming with Curtis Bashaw, a developer of the Mondrian in Soho, to turn a former Atlantic City Howard Johnson into the Chelsea, a boutique hotel with a Stephen Starr restaurant. A spokesman for the project tells the Times that the Beatrice team is “going to be in charge of celebrity wrangling, including bringing Paul’s sister’s friends down” to a fifth-floor lounge. Chloë has gone to AC for a Morrissey concert, so it’s not beyond the realm of possibility. Our favorite part of the story? When the Times reporter gripes about getting turned away from the Beatrice.
