Clay at Wildflower Farms

Hudson Valley's Wildflower Farms Is the Best NYC Escape

"I entered Clay — the hotel’s restaurant named as a tribute to the soil where much of its produce is grown — to find a packed dining room on a bone-chilling Monday in November, with diners at the bar and at tables that sit right against the kitchen where chef Rob Lawson was hard at work. I enjoyed a tightly curated, Empire State–positive wine list overseen by Vanessa Price and sipped a throaty Finger Lakes Cabernet Franc from Hermann J. Wiemer while looking out to the backlit silhouette of the ridge; the whole experience felt just as perfect as you could hope for nowadays." - David Landsel
