Le Bernardin (New York, USA) ★★★★☆

Dining at 10pm on Saturday is not easy for a foreigner in New York. All the shops close before 8pm where leaving me with no choice of having a jetlag nap in the evening before heading to this world’s 19th and 3-Star Michelin restaurant.

Le Bernardin is easy to find which located at the ground floor of a commercial building.  The restaurant was full house when we arrived at 10pm. Our table was at the very end of the restaurant which offers us the view of all activities happen. The setting is warm and cozy but tables are close to each other and full of servers.

They offer a set dinner of 4 courses and can choose from categories include ‘Almost Raw’,‘Barely Touched’ and ‘Lightly Cooked’. 


It was an interesting and fulfilling dinner. I was amazed that there were customers coming for dinner at midnight when we left.
