2007 Best Tasting Menu

Salts

A tasting menu should be a culinary adventure, not an overpriced prix fixe. At Salts, chef Gabriel Bremer delivers five tantalizing dishes, from Jerusalem artichoke soup with morels and goat cheese to the stunning ballotine of chicken served with fava beans and bacon under a “cloud” of corn. Each plate—you can request that anything on the Salts menu be included—illustrates the chef’s respect for genuine flavors and his commitment to pairing them in original, uncannily delicious ways.
