food suffers because chef is overwhelmed 7/19/2006

We had the tasting menu which sounded delightful on paper but fell short on execution. The food was actually pretty tasty but most dishes were cold. Wait time for food was VERY LONG and I had lots of chances to observe why as I waited and waited....there is ONE chef preparing ALL OF THE DISHES from start to finish. Prep,cooking and plating. ONE other guy in the kitchen who ONLY washes dishes. RIDICULOUS!!! This is why --yes, it is true -- you CAN hear the chef swearing on many an occasion (as many others here have noted.) If they get some HELP IN THERE this place would have a chance. Otherwise, NO WAY. NY'ers NOT gonna tolerate this kind of service. Pros: lovely, relaxed space Cons: loooooooooong waits for food, food overwhelmingly cold more
