"Chef Todd Gray’s super-seasonal mainstay, around since 1999, relocated to bigger downtown digs this month. Celebrate its first holiday in the new space with a Christmas Eve brunch from 10:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. ($48) or dinner from 5:30 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. ($110); reserve a seat here. The meal comes on the same week its first winter black truffles of the season have started to arrive from Périgord, France." - Vinciane Ngomsi
