RESTAURANT REVIEW
Having earned the highest honors in cuisine (EMP was awarded three stars by Michelin in 2012), Daniel Humm was not willing to rest on his laurels. He decided to celebrate his achievement by throwing out his menu and replacing it with one that focuses on the cuisine of New York City. The result is a menu filled with interesting dishes like sturgeon smoked tableside and a desconstructed carrot tartare that you can assemble to your liking. Also on the menu is Humm’s signature dish, roast Muscovy duck scented with lavender, honey and spices, which should be a requisite for anyone with a keen interest in fine dining. The dining room is “stunning,” the wine list is “filled with interesting and well-priced selections,” and Humm’s partner, Will Guidara, and his staff make sure that “your every need is cared for.”
