Item Description
Enjoy a semi-private "nook" dinner for up to 14 people. Package includes House Beer and Wine + Appetizers, Pizza, "From the Fire" Entrées and Executive Pastry Chef Georgia Wodder's delectable Sundaes! ABOUT MEL'S Located in the former Nabisco Factory across a skybridge from Chelsea Market, the restaurants at 85 Tenth Avenue are a collaboration between Chef Melissa Rodriguez and managing partner Jeff Katz. Both the design of Mel's and Chef Melissa Rodriguez's menu are informed by the hearth at the restaurant's center. Everything on the menu is intended to be shared, and is prepared either over a wood-fired grill or in the chrome-tiled pizza oven. The menu is versatile enough to satisfy those leaving the office for a glass of wine and a plate of grilled prawns at the bar; or a three-course family-style feast for a friend's birthday or fun celebration.
Item Special Note
ABOUT CHEF MELISSA RODRIGUEZ After graduating from the Culinary Institute of America, Melissa Rodriguez started her professional culinary career with Elaine Bell Catering and at Oceana. In 2006, she was hired as a line cook at Daniel Boulud's flagship Restaurant Daniel, where she quickly rose the ranks to sous chef. After five years at Daniel, Melissa joined the team at Del Posto where she was promoted to Chef de Cuisine. Two years later, Melissa was named Executive Chef, making her the first woman at the helm of a restaurant awarded four stars by the New York Times. Like most New York restaurants, Del Posto closed in March 2019. In the summer of 2020, Melissa partnered with Restaurateur Jeff Katz with whom she worked for almost a decade at Del Posto to acquire the space previously occupied by Del Posto at 85 Tenth Avenue.
