Thomas Henkelmann is the most French of German chefs. Born in the Black Forest, this devotee of French gastronomy learnt his trade in Alsace before moving his pots and pans to Connecticut, to this beautiful 18th century Victorian manor house situated near the waters of Long Island. Inspired by his travels, Thomas Henkelmann likes to break down boundaries between products and to create surprising combinations, such as his champagne sauerkraut accompanied by a seafood mousseline. Each of his recipes makes a veiled reference to his origins… His partner Theresa - an interior designer - has turned this hotel into a setting worthy of his cooking by creating a European atmosphere inspired by Balinese and Chinese styles. This must be Greenwich’s most tasteful address.
