More details just came in on the next Danny Meyer project, Maialino. Without further ado, here's what Union Square Hospitality Group has to say about the project:
"Danny and the Union Square Hospitality Group team are gearing up for the November opening of this new neighborhood Roman trattoria overlooking Gramercy Park. Lovingly designed by the Rockwell Group, Maialino will be located on the first floor of the hotel and will capture the warmth and comfort of a traditional Roman trattoria, re-imagined for its contemporary setting. Guests will be greeted in a front bar area that will serve as a local coffee bar in the morning and will later transform itself into a lively wine bar serving small plates of food throughout the day and into late evening. Beyond the bar, the trattoria will feature warm, saturated colors, wood planked floors, wainscoting, and windows overlooking Gramercy Park; a private dining room serving up to 20 will be available for events and celebrations. Maialino will offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner.
The executive chef will be Nick Anderer, former Executive Sous Chef at
Gramercy Tavern, and the General Manager will be Terry Coughlin, formerly the General Manager at
Tabla."
