the other dan and dave
remember dan and dave from the olympics and how they failed to meet expectations? well, another dan and dave–dan abrams of msnbc and mediaite.com fame and dave zincenko of eat this not that and men’s health have joined forces to open a new restaurant called the lion in new york’s greenwhich village–this one seems poised to exceed expectations. to do this, they’ve hired chef john delucie away from the famed waverly inn to do a restaurant heavy on sea food and star power–demi and ashton, the dad from gossip girl, and donna karan have been seen there.
the place is so swank that there’s a special table for famous people (or where dave can do his gross business) upstairs that has its own bathroom and staircase. good luck gettin’ a table, even rupie’s people at the wall street journal had a hard time.
when i heard about this one, i was surprised to hear that their other good buddy, bill hemmer, wasn’t also an investor but maybe he’s got his hands full at his restaurant in the hamptons called sen lounge.
CORRECTION: I was informed by 630 that sen lounge closed, so maybe hemmer is just gunshy of restaurant investment. i’m sure they’ll have a table reserved for him because the restaurant’s former space, the village, is one bill’s favorites.
