Jean-Georges Nougatine

After our wonderful meal a couple months ago at Jean-Georges' Nougatine in Shanghai, we wanted more and made lunch at his New York Nougatine a priority stop this weekend.  The New York Nougatine and Jean-Georges are both located in the Trump International Hotel on Central Park West at Columbus Circle.

We arrived 25 minutes early and decided to wait at the bar for a primo table to open.  The Ginger Margarita is a wow!

Corner table 59.  

Mrs. SFO started with the fabulous Shrimp Salad with avocado, tomato and champagne vinaigrette dressing.

While I went with the amazing Fried Calamari with basil salt and Citrus-chili dip.

Mrs. SFO pointed these out.  

Her main was the wonderful SaUteed sea bass with carmelized cauliflower, poppyseed-buttermilk vinaigrette.

And the flip side.

While I enjoyed the amazing Veal Milanese a la Jean-Georges, with parmesan, pecans, escarole and mint.

For dessert, we both had the incredible Jean-Georges Chocolate cake with vanilla bean ice cream.

What an incredible meal and a bargain at the prix fixe lunch price of only $38 per person.
