“It’s just really well done, not over the top flashy, but ultra chic. The sommelier is maybe the best I’ve ever encountered. I’ve been four times, each a different chef and each time wonderful.”

It rotated chefs in residence, so what you got depended on who was cooking that month. People said that made it hit or miss, but the was the sure thing and worth adding. The prix fixe was cheap for the quality. Portions were small and one person left calling it $200 for three and a piece of honeycomb.

“Fulgurances hands down for me. I’ve had so many meals in both NYC and Paris that smoke other meals for 5-10X the price. They rotate chefs so there’s a chance for hit and miss but I’ve never had a miss.”

“Try Fulgurances! Former laundromat turned culinary incubator. They continually rotate chefs in residence who come from all over the world to cook there — I went when it was a chef from Ukraine.”

“I really enjoy the vibe and the concept. Also I feel like it’s a good value and one of the more affordable pre-fix menus in NYC. I went when it was Greg Wong and Soomin Yoon and everyone at the table agreed it was one of our top meals of the year.”
