food marcel sothebys restaurant roman williams
Marcel, a new restaurant, opened on April 17 in the lower level of Sotheby’s new home at the Marcel Breuer building on the Upper East Side. Designed by Roman and Williams in partnership with the auction house, the space features walnut-paneled walls, an open kitchen, and a pâtisserie. Chef Marie-Aude Rose, who also oversees La Mercerie downtown, created a “continental” menu rooted in French technique but influenced by Breuer’s Hungarian heritage, with dishes like chicken paprikash and lobster bisque with turmeric and ginger. The wine list comes from Sotheby’s own collection, allowing guests to purchase bottles they enjoy during their meal.
