SHO Shaun Hergatt (New York, NY)

SHO Shaun Hergatt is located within a three-minute walking distance from my office (Financial District).  I had been eyeing on this restaurant even before it opened, and I was glad to have finally checked it out with my ex-co-worker Andy. 


Shaun Hergatt is a relatively young Australian chef, with a unique style.  His dishes are full of flavor, refreshing, and just gorgeous.


SHO has a fantastic 3-course lunch pre-fixe going on this summer (through Labor Day) at $24.  I would highly recommend checking this place out during this promotional season for several reasons: 1) appetizer and main entree options include beef carpaccio, amadai and pork belly, which are not the most common dishes (e.g., garden salad, roasted chicken, and grilled salmon) offered at most restaurants during Restaurant Week, 2) dessert dishes--especially the milk chocolate palet with yuzu chantilly and rasberry-- are highly creative and simply delicious, and 3) this is a gorgeous restaurant definitely worth a visit and you'll have to pay a high price for the visit unless you take advantage of this special opportunity.
