More information on Rouge 99

This tiny bistro with a circular white bar and velvet curtains serves amazing food. Subtly spiced mussels, a peerless roasted chicken, chiffon-thin carpaccio of beef on pristine arugula: Chef Michael Yeamans excels at French classics with a twist. He also does a lavish $15 hamburger with amazing frites -- this two-hander with caramelized onions and bleu cheese is considered by burger-meisters to be the best in the city, and has won numerous awards. A stylish crowd gathers at the cafe tables along the sidewalk from April through October to sip and flirt. P.S. Please don't come here without your most expensive shoes and bag. Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.
