Four Seasons Restaurant NYC

One of the experiences New Yorkers love most is the rare chance to tour the Four Seasons kitchen and watch as the chefs create the dishes critics love.

Because the chefs are wonderful teachers who love to meet us, in 2013 they are offering three intimate cooking tutorials especially for foodies who are interested in a behind the scenes look at The Four Seasons and the work of professional chefs.

 

A delicious gift for anyone who loves food and restaurants, the first three-hour tutorial is January 19, 2013 and includes a premium quality chef’s jacket or apron, personally embroidered with your name,
the Four Seasons logo and the title “Guest Chef.”

 

After the morning demonstration

everyone will gather in the Grill Room for a four-course luncheon featuring the day’s creations and truly spectacular wines, chosen to pair perfectly with a toast warm winter’s feast.

Another Date Added…  Please join Four Seasons Restaurant on February 23, 2013 for a behind-the-scenes look at The Four Seasons and a rare chance to enjoy a Saturday having fun with professional chefs.

Thompson Hotels

In a world full of choices, we all tend to question who we are and where we belong.

Icons, rebels, and creative spirits act as our inspirations, those dreamers, philosophers, and visionaries at heart—be it in business or in pleasure—who know exactly who they are and where they want to hang their hats.

More precisely, Thompson Hotels inspiration are those distinct personalities they wish they had known, and raised a glass with, from Julie Christie to Steve McQueen, Michael Caine (in “Alfie” mode) to Marcello Mastroianni, Grace Kelly to Alfred Hitchcock, Pablo Picasso to Jean-Luc Goddard. Edie Sedgwick to Chet Baker. “Let’s get lost,” indeed. If they were real, we’d welcome in “The Royal Tannenbaums” and “The Big Lebowski.” We’d go to Paris for absinthe to fuel Dorothy Parker’s Round Table, or to the desert for peyote to be-dazzle Bill Burroughs’ Beats. We’d be on the bus with Ken Kesey’s “Merry Pranksters.” Further! Mick Jagger, circa 1973? Sure, bloke. Bobby Kennedy? Enter, Mister President.

Equal parts places to trip the night fantastic, sleep in peace, dine like gourmands, or just have a libation with a friend or intimate, Thompson Hotels are timeless and of the moment, contemporary and elegant, with creative touches you won’t find anywhere else.

Thompson Hotels are about redefining the luxury experience to a new generation of travelers, providing them with the comfort, privacy, and freedom they’re accustomed to. It may be cliché to say, but they are not your grandfather’s notion of a hotel. “In-residence,” for Thompson, means all the term implies. Your wishes are theirs. Places where form and function are equal partners, eclectic, we are, but distinct in a way that our guests “get.”

With 5 locations in New York, 2 in Los Angeles, 1 in Washington DC, Chicago & Toronto what’s holding you back from visiting soon.  Travel Deals? Thompson have them too!

Enjoy these exclusives on your next chic visit.

The Benjamin New York City

Lions & Tigers & Cereal (oh my!), the newly unveiled family- friendly getaway at The Benjamin, a boutique NYC hotel located in the heart of midtown, will have kids roaring with laughter and parents relieved that everything is taken care of. From a daylong outing to the zoo, to a cereal buffet delivered to the room the night before, it’s all covered. The one-night adventure, available through September 30, is priced seasonally starting from $374 this summer and includes:

• Four zoo tickets for the entire brood to enjoy a day of animal escapades at the Central Park Zoo.

• A cereal smorgasbord with an assortment to choose from, fruit and milk delivered the night before. Let’s face it, kids who wake up hungry as a bear just can’t wait for breakfast; all rooms at The Benjamin feature a kitchenette (with refrigerator and microwave), so it will be stocked and ready to go.

• Breakfast in-room for Mom & Dad, who tend to be more patient and can wait for room service (which, by the way, is from The National, Iron Chef Geoffrey Zakarian’s restaurant, located in the hotel).

• Winks’ Kidzzz Club Frisbee for fun times in the park and a souvenir to take back home.

• Travel-size sunscreen for the alfresco adventure.

• Winks’ Kidzzz Club, created to educate little guests on the importance of sleep,makes children feel right at home with the following for use during their stay: kid-sized bathrobes, a lending library of family favorite bedtime books, an organic wool-filled Toddler Pillow by Woolly Boo. Winkzzz himself (well, a stuffed animal version) is included for kids to take home (one per room, others available for purchase). Upon check out, a Sleep Certificate is awarded to children.

  The Benjamin’s Sleep Concierge, the first and only in the industry, is there to make sure guests big and small get a good night’s sleep. Kids and parents can order up any number of pillows from the hotel’s 12-choice pillow menu (if a pillow fight emerges, don’t blame the Sleep Concierge!). The five-foot body cushion, while larger than most kids, tends to be a favorite amongst the smaller set.

  For Lions & Tigers & Cereal (oh my!) reservations, visit TheBenjamin or call 1-888- 4-BENJAMIN (1-888-423-6526) and use booking code KIDZZZ.
