Rouge Tomate Description:
This Belgian export in the East 60s serves health-conscious fare with an elevated, French accent. Ignore the restaurant slogan, Sanitas Per Escam (health through food), and just eat. Chef Jeremy Bearman (who has worked with Daniel Boulud and Joël Robuchon) does an admirable job of cutting corners (i.e. keeping dishes on the healthy side) while still making them appetizing. A salad of Brussels sprouts leaves is given an added jolt with a sprinkling of Berkshire prosciutto. Squash gnocchi are light and flaky while the black cod is so tender it manages to practically disassemble itself when the fork hits. And somehow it all tastes better in a room that's chic and airy. The wine list includes plenty of options by the glass, including a handful of good local New York State wines.
