Margeaux Brasserie

If you're going to create a space reminiscent of a particular time, place and spirit, 1920's Paris would be it. Margeaux Brasserie is Chef Michael Mina's "moveable feast" to double metaphor Hemingway's ode to the city of the 20's. The restaurant's traditional brasserie fare is enlivened by Midwestern ingredients and bonhomie. Launch your time travel with a classic French cocktail, a Hemingway daiquiri or a selection from the roving champagne cart. The beverage program, including French wine, cognacs, Armagnac and liqueurs, is outstanding. Tempting hors d'oeuves include artisan cheeses served tableside; moules frites; duck wings à l' orange; or a warm Camenbert truffle baguette. You can't miss with any of the classics: salade Niçoise; onion soup gratinée; roast chicken; steak pommes frites; or bouillabaisse. Dessert is equally oh la la. Visit Petit Margeaux patisserie on the first floor of the Waldorf Astoria for pastries, coffee, salads, sandwiches and tartines, too.
