Item Description
Barbetta, having celebrated its 100th Anniversary in 2006, is the oldest restaurant in New York that is still owned by the family that founded it.
Barbetta is also the oldest Italian restaurant in New York, and the oldest restaurant in New York's Theatre District. This three-fold distinction makes this historic restaurant a landmark among New York restaurants. Its landmark status has been recognized by the prestigious and highly selective Locali Storici d'Italia, which has designated Barbetta a Locale Storico (Historic Establishment), the first restaurant in America to have been so named. Barbetta features the cuisine of Piemonte, Italy's northwestern-most region, bordering on Switzerland and France.
The restaurant is decorated with 18th century Piemontese antiques, most notable among these the great chandelier that hangs in the main dining room. This 18th century Piemontese chandelier was obtained by Ms. Maioglio from a palazzo in Torino (capital of Piemonte), which formerly belonged to the Savoys, Italy's royal family. Another important piece is the harpsichord in the foyer, signed Francesco Fabbri 1631, an extremely rare instrument which the Metropolitan Museum has requested be donated to them.
The winner of this package will indulge in dinner for four in the exuberantly verdant Barbetta Garden and its spectacular landmarked interior.
