By Richard Vines May 19 (Bloomberg) -- Wally Ganzi , 66, co-owner of the Palm Restaurant group, spots a scrap of paper on the pavement outside his new London steak house, the group’s first outlet in Europe. He bends down, picks it up, looks round in vain for a bin and then slips it into his pocket. No detail of the hospitality business is too small for Ganzi, whose grandfather opened the first Palm with a friend on New York’s Second Avenue, in 1926. “I’m not going to criticize other restaurants,” says Ganzi, who has been eating his way around the city, testing the competition before Palm opens on the site of Drones in Belgravia next week. “I’ll only say there are grills here but there’s nothing like the Palm, and I love London. We’ve been working on this for six or seven years and it’s very important to us.” While Palm also looked at Canary Wharf, he has no immediate plans to open there. The next sites under consideration are in Paris, Milan and Madrid. The company’s business partner in London is Joseph Zappala, a former U.S. ambassador to Spain, Ganzi says. In the basement kitchen, a Montague Co. broiler and a Silver King lettuce crisper are installed and ready. While the official opening is on May 29, smart diners may try for bookings in the May 26-28 period, when the food is half price. The address is 1 Pont Street. There’s no telephone number yet. Ganzi, who lives in Naples, Florida, is an entertaining host. He’s planning to marry again next month. Once we finish touring the restaurant, we head to Zafferano for lunch. The architect Zaha Hadid sits at the next table and is joined by the model Naomi Campbell , looking fabulous and wearing a huge diamond ring. Finally, a reason to visit Zafferano. Bjorn van der Host, the Swiss-born chef who formerly headed the Greenhouse and La Noisette in London, opens his own establishment tonight, close to Smithfield Market. The Eastside Inn features a large open kitchen serving a restaurant and bistro and a lounge for late-night jazz. His contemporary French dishes include foie gras with espresso syrup and amaretto foam. The three-course menu will be 45 pounds ($68.61) and the seven- course tasting menu 65 pounds. In the bistro, mains start at 12.95 pounds. For more information: http://www.esilondon.com/. Pascal Aussignac of Club Gascon, Fergus Henderson of St. John, 阅读全文>> |
