Leslie -- As you know, Daniel is part of Relais & Chateaux (Relais Gourmand). What degree of significance was attributed to that affiliation by Boulud and by other members of the kitchen and dining room teams, respectively? Did the restaurant receive a meaningful amount of reservations from R&C's website or phone reservations service (unlikely)? Is the use of the R&C reservations service one way to bypass the usual reservations policy at Daniel?

Cabrales, sorry for taking so long to respond to this one. I didn't hear any discussion of the significance of the Relais Gourmand connection while I was in the restaurant, but that doesn't mean there wasn't one. I know that Daniel Boulud is very proud of his affiliation with Relais & Chateaux. I don't imagine that reserving through the R&C organization would yield any greater benefit than reserving directly through Daniel.
