Editorial Review

Groovy bulbous windows on Broadway reveal new edition of Marcus Samuelsson's all-day café. Bakery up front, grab a homemade artisanal pastry and go gorge in Central Park. In back, it's Euro-style wooden tables and waiter service. Classy stainless lights, products laid out anally on oak shelves. Northern-accented light fare, vasterbotten cheese turns the Caesar Nordic, lingonberries top Swedish meatballs, or just opt for everything at once with the smorgasbord and never feel homesick for The Jolly Troll again.
