Grand Army, An A-List Raw Bar, Lands In Boerum Hill
[tw-divider]The Scoop[/tw-divider]
- Mile End’s Noah Bernamoff, cocktail maven Damon Boelte, Rucola’s Julian Brizzi, and award-winning food photographer Daniel Krieger have teamed up to launch a Boerum Hill seafood bar, Grand Army, with an ambitious menu and creative cocktails, influenced by wd~50 chef Jon Bignelli
- This team of all-star restaurant alums set out with a mission to elevate the Boerum Hill dining scene with a 60-seat space, a 1930s-era wooden bar, a simple raw bar-focused menu, and expertly crafted drinks. All of the artwork displayed in Grand Army was curated by Paul Bright and Daniel Krieger
- Grab a seat around the raw bar and treat yourself to oyster happy hour ($1 oysters, weekdays from 5-7pm), steamed mussels (green garlic aioli, toasted), or the Little Gem (pistachios, breadcrumbs, blue cheese, and apples), and chase it with an Enchanted Forest (Greenhook old yom gin, blood orange amaro, Suze, lime, and mint), or A Whole New World (ceylon-tea-infused-milk-washed Brooklyn gin, vigne de peche, buckwheat honey, lemon, angostura bitters, and cinnamon)
