Where To Eat In The Theater District, According To Ben Platt

"“This is a late entry in terms of my journey, because Noah loves cooking meat, braising meat, and slow-cooking meat. There's always meat cooking in our house and he loves to be in control. So the idea of going somewhere and cooking and being in charge, even in a restaurant, is big to him. I love the experiential thing of getting to cook for each other and have it be communal. It's really fun energy. I like to go there when I'm seeing a jukebox musical or something that's high energy and fun because it really puts you in that mood. It's also pretty good for pre-show because it's not crazy heavy. I mean, obviously you get pretty full because it's meat, but it's just individual pieces of the meat and some veggies. I usually get some edamame and some salad. The meat's really delicious and well marinated. And it's fun to be in control of your meal. Maybe some people think it’s blasphemy to come to a restaurant and be in charge of the cook. But I think it's really fun, especially if that's the adventure you're choosing.”" - brennan carley
