Foer
Experimentation and courage
Foer continues to provide guests with creative and dynamic cooking centered around fermentation, drying, smoking, and various types of pickling. It feels modern and sophisticated, but without any of the technical brilliance outshining the intrinsic qualities of the ingredient. This is exactly how it should be! Additional kudos for the effort of staff being more aware of the food’s impact on the climate. Here, they demonstrate knowledge and expertise that’s clearly above average.
