La Nouvelle Maison
It’s fancy, it’s a bit stuffy, but Nouvelle Maison is also quite special, and the food is parfait. They deliver expert renditions of such Gallic treats as duck liver pate (from the Hudson Valley), escargots bourguignonne, a cash-heavy cornucopia of caviars, Holland Dover sole, and a twice-cooked duck a l’orange that will make you rethink that dish. As for the ambiance: it gets almost laughably frou frou, especially around the bar, where multiple generations, dressed in the very latest fashion trends, gather. But who can blame them? The complimentary homemade potato chips are divine, and pair perfectly with a good cocktail, which is what you’ll get here.
