"If the style and zeitgest of 1980s New York can be defined by a single place, it's The Odeon. The brasserie, located in the Tribeca neighborhood of downtown Manhattan, was a favorite restaurant of the young men and women who were determining the direction of culture across the city's art, style and fashion worlds, and quickly became the backdrop (and often the subject) for the artists of the day. Think Jay McInerney, De Niro and Basquiat: all regulars during the most creative decade of their lives. It's a classic that has stood the test of time, and for me still feels relevant and fresh."
