Wolfgang Puck Might Bring Spago to NYC, Fletcher’s Joins Seaport Smorgasburg, and More Intel

— Wolfgang Puck is gearing up to open an outpost of his high-end steakhouse chain Cut in the Four Seasons Hotel New York Downtown. Although he operates a grab-and-go shop at JFK, this will be the celebrity chef’s first-ever official, sit-down restaurant in New York City. Puck made his name in Los Angeles, which he calls the "hardest market" because people like to cook at home. But the chef tells Richard Vines: "In New York, if you have a nice two-bedroom apartment, you're not going to cook that often....You don’t have the space, and you still make good money." Vines notes that if Puck can find the right space, he might even bring his legendary fine dining restaurant Spago to New York. Cut is slated to open in September.

— Starting today, Matt Fisher and the crew from Fletcher’s Brooklyn Barbecue will be serving ribs, and sandwiches filled with chicken, pork, and brisket at the South Street Seaport location of Smorgasburg. Fisher’s dry-rubbed St. Louis-style cut ribs recently won the Rib Kings of NYC event, which is one reason why his team was asked to join Smorgasburg. The South Street Seaport market is open daily for lunch and dinner.
