"The Waldorf Astoria Hotel is reopening later this year after extensive renovations that started in 2017. The hotel will feature a new two-story American brasserie overseen by Gramercy Tavern chef Michael Anthony. The brasserie, located in the former La Chine space, will offer seasonal dishes and elevated classics in a space with a vast bar and a dramatic staircase on the main level and white tablecloth dining upstairs." - Melissa McCart
