"Celebrity chef David Burke, an Iron Chef America star, signed on to open his first new restaurant in three years: a 148-seat modern American brasserie called Park Ave Kitchen, slated to open in May 2023 at 277 Park Avenue, between East 47th and 48th streets; the deal reportedly includes a 49-seat fast-casual café that will be open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Burke currently operates eight restaurants in New Jersey, one on the Upper East Side, five elsewhere in New York, and a handful in other locations, making this Midtown East opening part of a larger footprint." - Luke Fortney
