Week in Reviews

The full round-up of the week's restaurant reviews from around the country is slated for tomorrow, but new New York Times critic Sam Sifton's first review has finally been released. In it, Sifton has a glowing two stars for Daniel Boulud's casual eatery DBGB: "Mr. Boulud has opened a very good restaurant. The lamb was sublime, earthy and spicy and rich, evidence of superb technique, the sort of snack that separates his empire from others ... His food game, as they say in rap precincts, is tight." [NYT]
