GARDEN CITY, N.Y., Aug. 20, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Simon, a
global leader in premier shopping, dining, entertainment, and
mixed-use destinations, is pleased to welcome two new restaurants
from highly acclaimed chefs to Roosevelt Field. Small Batch, the
newest restaurant concept from Tom
Colicchio and Crafted Hospitality, will open its doors this
fall and Osteria Morini, The Altamarea Group and Chef Michael White's famed neighborhood Italian
restaurant, will open at Roosevelt Field next summer.
"Simon is committed to bringing top-rated chefs with
best-in-class dining experiences to our properties," said
Eric Sadi, Executive Vice President
Leasing for Simon. "With the popular Dining District and the debut
of restaurants such as Small Batch and Osteria Morini, Roosevelt
Field is world-class in dining as well as shopping."
Small Batch will have locality and seasonality at its core while
featuring approachable, rustic American fare. The culinary and
beverage teams will work closely with members of the Long Island community to celebrate the
world-class products coming from local farms, fisheries, vineyards
and more throughout their offerings. The 180-seat restaurant will
feature a laid-back, farmhouse-inspired atmosphere with an open,
interactive kitchen and wood-fired grill, allowing chefs to
showcase their talent and bring back-of-house excitement to the
dining room.
"As a homeowner on Long Island,
I'm thrilled that our team has the opportunity to share our passion
for food and hospitality with the local community," said
Tom Colicchio. "Spending time on the
farms and vineyards of the North Fork is one of my family's
favorite activities… so I know how lucky we are to have access to
such a remarkable group of partners."
Introduced in 2010 in Manhattan's SoHo district, Osteria Morini
brings the cuisine of Northern
Italy's Emilia-Romagna to
Roosevelt Field. Osteria Morini in Roosevelt Field will incorporate
touches of rustic charm with a more contemporary and industrial
edge. At Osteria Morini, expect to feel at home with the comforting
and familiar foods of Northern
Italy, including their renowned fresh made pastas, delicious
cured meats, fresh fish and prime cuts of meat. It is the perfect
place to share and try different dishes with a wine list that is
both approachable and varied.
"Osteria Morini is a comfortable and familiar dining experience,
from the very first visit. It is your home kitchen away from home.
Guests immediately feel like a regular with the warmth of ambiance
and the authentic dishes on the menu to share," explains Ahmass
Fakahany, CEO & Owner of Altamarea Group. "Chef Michael White and I are delighted to capture and
bring this dining experience from Italy to Soho New York to the neighborhood at
Roosevelt Field."
