2. Alexandre Petrossian of the New York-based caviar
company says his Special Reserve Ossetra this season
has a flavor, egg size, and all-around quality that he
hasn’t seen in about 20 years. We tasted the caviar at
Bloomberg HQ and found it to be gorgeous, fat and
sweet, with a delicate, almost miso-like flavor.“ ][

One of the most indulgent and deeply
satisfying culinary experience in the world
comes in the form of caviar in a beautiful
setting. The most extraordinary caviar
experience is found inside the gorgeous
Petrossian New York, which elevates the
ritual of enjoying your caviar to new heights.
Nestled inside the historic Alwyn Court
Building on Manhattan’s West Side, and a
shortwalkfromCarnegieHallandtheLincoln
Center, Petrossian New York has been the
darling of caviar-craving artists, glitterati,
New York society, financiers, fine-dining
connoisseurs and legendary musicians
since it opened its doors in 1984. Romanian
film and theater set designer Ion Oroveanu
set the tone for a most delightful culinary
experience evoking an Art Deco fine jewelry
box. Lalique crystal wall sconces glitter,
a magnificent Lanvin chandelier perches
overhead, 1930’s bronze sculptures and
elegantly etched Erte mirrors grace the
dining room. The only thing that outshines
the decadent beauty of the dining room
is the true draw, the ultimate call of caviar
lovers: the food.
The menu reads like an homage to the finer
things in life, with a selection of caviar as
dizzying as the variety of accompanying
fine Champagnes. At Petrossian New York,
you can enjoy your variety of caviar on its
own, presented in spectacular servers, and
dolloped on fresh baked blini. Or you can
have your caviar folded into inventive dishes.
Their talented chef skillfully works caviar into
his menu to complement and enhance a dish
rather than overpower the food.
The offerings marry modern French cuisine and
Russian fare beautifully, just as you’d expect
from the family who introduced caviar to Paris
back in the 1920s. Now a third generation
of Petrossians continues to proffer a premier
selection of caviar that shines alone or as an
accompaniment to delicacies such as foie gras,
smoked salmon, and steak tartare.
The avocado and transmontanus caviar comes
with a rich crabmeat salad, roasted octopus,
coconut gelee, and sorrel sauce. The scallop
sashimi and ossetra caviar is served with a
champagne broth and complemented by the
gentle flavor of lemongrass oil. The caviar
and watermelon salad is cool and fresh with
PETROSSIAN NEW YORK is the ultimate destination for caviar and
fine dining connoisseurs. Legendary musicians and artists satisfy their
caviar cravings at this Art Deco designed caviar wonderland.
