Restaurants; Where the gimmicks never end, from Amazon fish ribs to firecracker applesauce.
Ruth Reichl. New York Times (1857-Current file). New York, N.Y.: Nov 1, 1996. p. C33 (1 page)
The whipped potatoes, which the chef and partner, David Burke, made famous at Park Avenue Cafe, taste more of olive oil than potatoes, and the hashed browns are dry and overcooked.
(...)
The entrees to avoid are the silly monkfish Wellington, a piece of nearly tasteless fish topped with mushrooms and wrapped in soggy pastry, and the "angry" lobster. Half a five-pound lobster dusted with peppery flour and sauteed with sliced garlic is a lot to wrestle with. Unlike the similar sauteed lobster at F.illi Ponte in TriBeCa, this one is so tough it made me wonder if the beast had been cooked twice. If you want lobster here, it's much better to have it steamed.
End the meal with drunken doughnuts. It's another gimmick, but it's charming. The waiter arrives shaking a pristine white paper bag. He opens it at the table, pours warm twists of sugar-dusted dough onto a plate and sets down three pots of liquor-laced jam. The combination is irresistible.
