"Tina Vaughn and her husband, chef Chip Smith — who ran the Lilliputian French spot the Simone on the Upper East Side for nearly a decade — will be opening Eulalie later this month at 239 W. Broadway, near White Street, in what had been Drew Nieporent’s Montrachet, and later, Bâtard. The room “has a more traditional look and fewer seats than before, but Mr. Smith’s country French food and Ms. Vaughn’s handwritten menu will be familiar,“ according to the New York Times." - Melissa McCart
