Your Ideal Restaurant

[researchgal]

If you could open your dream restaurant, what would it be like (menu, room, size, etc.), and where?

[bourdain]

It would have about 85 seats..and would basically be a dupe of St John in London.  Bare white walls, no bullshit menu..lots of pork fat, duck fat..a chef-friendly bar...a deep pocketed silent investor and a good bartender. Tracy Westmoreland of Siberia would be the GM. Fergus Henderson would be consulting chef. Everyone I ever liked to work with would have a job--and the place would specialize in late night service to just-off work chefs and restaurant folk--who would of course, drink for free.

A recipe for bankruptcy, si?

If I have two functioning neurons left..I would never open my own place.
