Wink Description:
"See what we are making fresh today," proclaims tempting Wink, where menus are reconfigured daily to reflect the availability of the freshest seafood, produce and cheeses. Although the smartly casual dining room seats perhaps 50 at the most, there's room in the kitchen for two of the city's culinary giants: owners Stewart Scruggs, formerly of Four Seasons Hotel New York; and Mark A. Paul, who earned his stripes at Charlie Trotter's and Le Cirque. The wine bar expansion transformed any wait for a table into an enjoyable warm-up. Entrées are reminiscent of Sonoma Valley and focus on balancing the natural and the elegant. Dishes that have caught our eye and indeed satisfy include rabbit pâté with figs and toasted walnuts and quail breast with Japanese eggplant and radicchio. The weekly changing wine list and Wink's 50-plus wines by the glass guarantee the vino will always complement the plate. Don't overlook the tasting menus or desserts, like the basil panna cotta and El Rey chocolate cake. Vegetarians rejoice: You are never overlooked here.
