Matyson, Stateside, and Moore Bros. teaming up

POSTED: Monday, January 7, 2013, 1:11 PM

Here at Meal Ticket, we're pretty vocal fans of both Matyson BYOB and Stateside—so we were understandably excited to catch word that Ben Puchowitz and George Sabatino are teaming up this month for one giant collaborative feast to be hosted at Matyson (37 S. 19th). Also along for the ride is Greg Moore, wine genius/owner of Moore Brothers wine stores. (Besides his pairing expertise being top-notch, we'll note that Matyson is also just a bit easier to find than Moore Bros.' Jersey shop.)

The luxe 8-course dinner with pairings will go for $150 per guest (inclusive of everything), and will be available for just one seating on Thu., Jan. 17 at 7 p.m. The menu hits all the extravagant notes you're probably expecting—both pricy, like lobster cannelloni and truffles, and rich, like a plate of beef cheek, loin, and marrow—but what really strikes us is how seamlessly the dishes integrate the two chefs' signatures... and how much fun we suspect they had coming up with it. Slick, high-end ingredients mix with humble, cheffy indulgences, punched up with smart hits of modern technique and global influence. But you can see for yourself, after the jump.

 

Caviar & Eggs bottarga, crème fraiche, onion crumbs
