After asking the city of Chicago what he should name his new restaurant in a public vote, hotelier Ian Schrager has decided to keep the name of the restaurant The Pump Room in his forthcoming hotel Public. When the hotel opens this fall, its centerpiece will be the restaurant, created by Jean-Georges Vongeritchten and inspired by his James Beard award winning restaurant ABC Kitchen. Local chef Bradford Phillips will run the show. [Eater Chicago]
