The rooftop restaurant will be serving a family-style meal for $195 per person, and the feast will likely include dishes like burrata with caviar, Chianina beef carpaccio, spicy lobster rigatoni, prime rib grilled and a Nutella fudge cake panettone for the table. Reservations are available here." - Tanya Edwards
