L'Abeille (One Star)
A plush dining room sets the scene at L'Abeille, the très chic French eatery from fine dining veteran, Chef Mitsunobu Nagae. The refinement of the atmosphere - antique brass, velvet booths - is perfectly matched by the menu: a presentation of French haute cuisine splashed with Japanese sensibilities and New York edge.
