"The Show: Pasta A La Presse A splashy, special occasion meal at The Grill is basically just tableside performance after tableside performance. There's an avocado crab louis salad tossed before you, a prime rib trolley circling the dining room, and a baked Alaska that they'll light on fire at least twice. But you should not leave this Midtown East martini lunch institution without coming face-to-face with La Presse, a medieval-looking contraption dating back to 1901. The same server is always in charge, cranking the juice out of a handful of bones with the confidence of someone who does this 40 to 60 times a night. The kitchen then turns those dark, meaty juices into a velvety pasta sauce, for a final product that is downright luxurious." - willa moore, molly fitzpatrick, sonal shah, will hartman
