more dash than cash
Now that sale season is in full swing at Holts (race you to the periwinkle Lanvin sack dresses!) a girl needs a place to rest her weary Michael Kors-clad feet (40 per cent off, of course).
So how handy that the top floor of Holts opens into the lobby of The Four Season’s Hotel, where Chartwell restaurant has just taken delivery of a hot young chef from New York, with a resume that includes Le Bernadin and Jean Georges Restaurant.
But wait–even girls who have blown the budget on Burberry bikinis can afford to dine here. Chef has introduced a new “Dine and Dash” menu from 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. every evening, with two courses for just $29 (parking included).
Choose a fois gras terrine with rhubarb and pistachio, seconded by wild salmon with trumpet mushrooms and horseradish. Or follow up a Dungeness crab cake BLT with soy-braised short ribs and lime potato purée. Or be totally wacky, and order two desserts.
You do own that Lanvin sack dress, after all.
