Quail Gets the Spotlight at Le Coq Rico
"Chicken takes the spotlight at Le Coq Rico, state Michelin inspectors of the New York City branch of Antoine Westermann’s beloved Paris restaurant dedicated to all things bird. As of this summer, chicken has to share the spotlight with Westermann’s latest fowl to grace the menu: quail. Known for the brand's treatment towards heritage breeds, Westermann sources his quail from Long Island’s North Fork region—specifically, Feisty Acres Farm—where Bobwhite quails are native to the area. The quail at Le Coq Rico is served atop a 'nest' of angel hair potatoes."
