Tom Colicchio's Craft is a place where food possesses strong pure flavours and back to basics cooking techniques. It’s a unique marriage of the finest ingredients, haute cuisine and family-style service that give this modern space an almost old world charm. In a city of Keller’s and Vongrichtens where emphasis is placed on dazzling culinary creations that verge on works of art craft reverses the emphasis and instead reminds us that simple does not necessarily mean simplistic. Escargot & Chicken egg or Peruvian octopus are hardly home-cooked favourites but they are presented here in full glory, removed of all accompaniment that would mar their overall flavour. In many ways this is tapas NYC style, with diners choosing the components of their meal for themselves rather than choosing pre-fixed dishes with sides and sauce already in tow. Craft’s is no nonsense food that ticks all the right boxes, satiating the appetite and lingering in the memory for a long time to come.
