Dinner for 4 at The Red Cat, located at 227 Tenth Ave, Chelsea.

In 1999, a little known chef named Jimmy Bradley opened a restaurant called The Red Cat in New York's Chelsea neighborhood. The Red Cat eschewed the very notion of "concept" with a down-to-Earth setting in which to offer diners something refreshing for the times: outstanding food and professional, attitude-free service. The Red Cat was, and remains, defined by this deceptively simple approach.
