Set on a mezzanine above the hotel's grand lobby, this dining room is built around several large African acacia trees, their trunks curving up through the room between the tables. Some seating sits beside oversized windows for natural light, while other tables nestle among the trees for a wooded, sheltered feel. The kitchen serves breakfast, lunch and weekend brunch, drawing on locally sourced ingredients. It suits an unhurried meal watching the lobby below rather than a quick bite. The effect is part indoor garden, part dining room, and unusual for a hotel restaurant in midtown Manhattan.
