"Chef Maya Mastersson elevates beans to lofty heights at Muy Pwa, the new cafe in Beanlandia, the bean museum, community hub, and Krewe of Red Beans den in Bywater. Pull up a seat at the bean-shaped bar, inlaid with a bean mosaic, and enjoy so many gluten-free options, including smoked duck feijoida with white beans and linguica, long bean kimchi, and black bean poblano relleno. Beans inspire dessert and cocktails, with chef Mastersson’s menu paying homage to the many cultures that spotlight beans on the table." - Beth D'Addono, Eater Staff
"Paris Cafe is Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s restaurant that serves food inspired by Trans World Airlines in-flight menus from the ’50s and ’60s. It is located on the second level of the hotel, open to the public." - Eater Staff
"Opened around the same time at John F. Kennedy Airport, I find Jean-Georges Vongerichten's Paris Cafe serves likeable pizzas and salads that don't necessarily impress." - Carla Vianna
"A 200‑seat mezzanine restaurant from a celebrated chef occupies the footprint of the original midcentury Paris Café and Lisbon Lounge, offering breakfast, lunch and dinner with dishes inspired by vintage in‑flight menus; note that onsite full‑service dining closes relatively early in the evening (around 9 p.m.)." - Lyndsey Matthews
"Jean-Georges Vongerichten opened Paris Café in the TWA Hotel at JFK — a reboot of the original closed since 2001 — serving American cuisine with an all-day focus on eggs and pastries for breakfast and salads, pizza, pasta, and burgers later." - Kayla Kumari Upadhyaya
