"Esscape Room is a newly opened restaurant-themed escape room in Long Island City. The first edition, named the Real Kitchen Nightmare, is an hourlong mind game designed by seasoned restaurateurs Kyle Radzyminski and Melanie Lemieux. The experience takes place in a building shared with their music school and features a deranged chef in a Michelin-starred speakeasy setting. The game includes real restaurant equipment and hired actors to enhance realism. Special effects and logical puzzles contribute to the immersive and challenging nature of the game." - Carla Vianna
