Air-kissing sorts of the kind spied at La Goulue and Le Bilboquet are flying south this winter to Bagatelle, a pricey Meatpacking District French bistro from the owners of neighboring STK; ‘classic with a modern twist’ describes both the cuisine and the decor – think oil infusions on the plate, bright abstract paintings on the stark white walls – while pulsing house music primes the crowd for bottle service and dancing upstairs at Kiss & Fly.
