Drinking Starward Whisky With Jean-Georges Vongerichten

The MICHELIN Guide and Starward Whisky present the story of Chef Jean-Georges Vongerichten and his namesake restaurant, Two Star Jean-Georges in New York City.

This is Part 4 of the MICHELIN x Starward G*Astronomy Series. Today we're with Jean-Georges Vongerichten in New York, at his Two Star restaurant Jean-Georges. Chef Vongerichten shares the culinary journey that has shaped his namesake restaurant, Jean Georges, and showcases two dishes: Foie gras “marzipan,” with quince-Riesling velvet, pistachio, almond. and rose, and lobster poached in whisky and passionfruit butter, with whiskey-glazed doughnuts. These are paired with two cocktails explained by wine and beverage director Rory Pugh: the Starward Sazerac and Starward Boulevardier.
