Chef Floyd Cardoz, who left his position at Danny Meyer's North End Grill back in April, reveals that he has plans to open a restaurant called White Street in Tribeca. This is the first independent project for Cardoz, who has been with Meyer's Union Square Hospitality Group for the past 16 years, as chef first at Tabla and then North End Grill. The Times reports that the new restaurant will be "American with global touches," but the original announcement suggested Cardoz would "focus back to his roots of cooking with Indian flavors," so expect those global flavors to lean Indian. White Street is slated to open this fall. No word on an exact address yet, but presumably it will be somewhere on White Street.
