Last night, Chefs Club Counter opened its doors on the iconic corner of Spring and Lafayette with a special VIP preview of the first “fine-fast” concept brought to life by entrepreneur Stephane De Baets, the Belgian entrepreneur behind the game-changing restaurant group, Chefs Club. Hundreds of hungry foodies packed the posh eatery for a first look and taste. The VIP crowd sipped on fine wines, like Ben Watts’ Watts Up Rosé, while sampling the menu. Speaking of the menu, everything was quite tasty but our favorites were the JG Burger Sliders, Duck Rice, Chicory Pizzas, and the Eggslut Crostini. They are definitely a must-have when you stop by. So who are the rockstar chefs making up this delicious menu? Jean-Georges Vongerichten, George Mendes, Linton Hopkins, Magnus Hansson, and Eggslut’s Alvin Cailan.

“I’m all about family, food and fun—bringing all those three together is my specialty,” are just a few words from Dino Redzic, the executive chef and owner of Paul’s on Times Square. Right in the middle of busy yet scenic Times Square in New York City, I was greeted and lead up onto the top floor of the Hilton Garden Inn. The smell of great food immediately intoxicates you, as any Elegant yet laid-back Italian restaurant should be. The guests immediately were all with company and enjoying their wine along with their food. My taste buds were immediately excited from the ambiance.
