GOOD LUCK! All the best & look forward to seeing you! Aureole will be in great hands & continue to flourish.
Mark my words: Any restaurant to have Tony Aiazzi as it's chef will be the best restaurant in New York. He is insanely talented and fiercely loyal to his profession, and his customers. Run to Aureole!!! because pretty soon you won't be able to get a table!- Good Luck!
