King's Carriage House Dinner Party_Feb 7, 2010
Kings’ Carriage House, at 251 East 82nd Street, New York City, opened in 1994, the restaurant has been receiving increasing acclaim. The Zagat Survey ranks it among New York City’s top 50 restaurants for décor and notes that “the cooking is royally good.” Chef de Cuisine Joel Allen prepared a Sunday's best three-course dinner for an exclusive dining guest list, by invitation only. Proprietors Elizabeth King and Paul Farrell recreated the elegant hospitality of a European manor house in this intimate two-story establishment. Gilded paintings, crystal chandeliers and antique furnishings are all part of the aristocratic atmosphere. Expert staff flawlessly provide an exceptional dining experience indulging each guest with romance, charm and warm hospitality. Cocktails were served in the Hunt Room, which features a handpainted mural of the Irish countryside. It is the most intimate room. The Mandalay Room, named for antique Mason’s Mandalay China, is the largest room and accommodated the 24+ guests. The three-course table d’hote dinner menu featured Foie Gras flan with a pomegranate reduction and caramelized pear, lobster purse with white truffle essence, butternut squash and apple wood hame nage, filet mignon wiht a port wine demi-glace and medallions of tarragon Cognac sausage. An offering of luxurious desserts and stilton cheese with fruits, biscuits & a nightcap of port made a memorable finish.
