New York’s insider summer restaurant season — when locals decamp to the Hamptons, the Catskills and the Greek isles and the city’s hottest places have open seats — is winding down.

Lawrence’s Bridges is coming to Chinatown, while Zeidman will man the kitchen at the Sushi Noz team’s hotly-anticipated Upper... Continue reading at 'Crains New York'
