Jean-Georges Vongerichten has been described as both a “genius” and a “great master of gastronomy”. In Manhattan, the Jean Georges restaurant has become legendary. The interior design is Zen-inspired, revealing the Grand Chef’s love of streamlined elegance and Asia. This Frenchman is famous for his “Thai-French cuisine”. This fusion of two great culinary traditions produces breathtaking results like yellowfin tuna ribbons, avocado, spicy radish and ginger marinade, foie gras, sour cherry granola, aged balsamic and sorrel and Jean-Georges’ chocolate cake and vanilla bean ice cream. It is impossible to tell you anything more about the menu, as Jean-Georges reinvents it every three months. Every dish is given the finishing touches at your table.
