A friend from overseas has tasked me to find him options for a big table or private room that can offer a “whole animal” type of dinner (a la Ssam Bar’s Bo Ssam or Ma Peche’s Ribeye or Fried Chicken options).
Thing is he wants something a little nicer than the Momofuku stools/hard rock vibe. It would be 8 adults + 2 children. This would be for early-mid March.
I recently had dinner in the private room at Charlie Bird and thought it could fit the bill (but they don’t have any large shareable dish such as the ones mentioned above). Perhaps one of the Blue Ribbons as well?
The breslin also does several large format feasts in a semi-private large table by the kitchen
if you want to get really creative - and i’m not sure they do it, but it’s worth a call - blue hill in the west village. they clearly have whole animals and a great intimate room in the back.
resto was my thought as well
we did one of those whole beast dinners at that front table and brought a ton of wine.
i think there were 8 of us, but it was quite a while ago and the room is not private.
