Chef Daniel Boulud’s DBGB Kitchen and Bar just received a noteworthy 2-star review [very good] in the NY Times. The review marks Sam Sifton’s debut as the food critic for the NY mega-paper, a post previously occupied by the well-known and somewhat controversial Frank Bruni. Sifton has a distinctly different style than Bruni, who kicked off his last stint with a discussion of Mario Batali’s Babbo. I know there’s a good chance ya’ll won’t care about what’s what in NYC … but I thought it was still worth a mention here.

ate at DBGB last month. everything was excellent. tried escargot for the first time and really enjoyed it. but not as much as “The Piggie” – a burger with pulled pork on top (!), covered in jalapeno mayo (!!) on a cornbread bun (!!!). it was stupid good.

Well Dr. Jones,
I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my two visits to DBGB as well. I long for the day where a restaurant like this is considered 2-stars here in ATL
Thanks for the read!
