Charlie Palmer's Aureole Celebrates 20 Years

 

Charlie Palmer's famed restaurant Aureole celebrated its 20^th anniversary last night in an Upper East Side invitation only, fashionable Fete, co-hosted by super chef Charlie Palmer and Esquire’s Editor-in-Chief David Granger. Friends of the restaurant, the media elite and industry heavyweights like Daniel Boulud and David Burke all joined in the festivities and a taste of the passed “20 bites”, celebrating Charlie’s cuisine and career over the last two decades.

In 1988, Charlie Palmer opened the doors at Aureole on the Upper East Side and quickly became one of New York ’s beloved institutions, an American version of Lutece. For the last 20 years, this charming restaurant in a turn-of-the-century brownstone steps off Madison Avenue has defined and showcased distinctly American food with a distinctly American sensibility.  Charlie Palmer made a landmark commitment to creating dishes featuring regional American ingredients.  The 80-seat room glows in the warm, diffused natural light and golden lamp glow, and consistently delivers sophistication, yet an approachable experience.
