The Garden Court Cafe at The Asia Society is one of NYC's best kept secrets.\r
\r
The atmosphere is amazingly tranquil as the sun shines down through the Atrium and the Weeping Podocopus grow serenely around you. The food is as delightful as the setting.\r
\r
It has recently gone under new management and the change has been seamless. Featuring many of the same menu items with a slightly fresh twist, it is an Idealistic setting in the rush of the city.\r
\r
The staff is intent on providing a wonderful experience and the menu is a delight to experience. The curry chicken salad is by far the most popular dish and is sure to satisfy the most discriminating pallet. The Butternut Squash Soup is also something not to be missed.\r
\r
Once you discover this east side paradise you will be torn between telling all of your friends and keeping the secret to yourself.\r
\r
In either case you will count yourself lucky to be one of the few who know of this gem!!
