Dining in New York City

Dining in New York City, an elegant, hardcover collection of 40 of New York City's most highly-rated restaurants, will be available on December 1, 2008. Created and designed by acclaimed Dutch photographer Jan Bartelsman, the book is both a comprehensive fine dining restaurant guide and a work of art that captures New York City's top restaurants and chefs in stunning color photographs.

Bartelsman's love of food and the restaurants of New York City inspired him to create this limited-edition guide.

The Dining in New York City selection highlights culinary luminaries from Tribeca pioneers David and Karen Waltuck, to rising star April Bloomfield as well as 3 star Michelin chefs Eric Ripert, Jean Goerge Vongerichten and Thomas Keller.

The 256 pages are interspersed with articles by noted food writers from both sides of the Atlantic. They include, Vogue's Jeffrey Steingarten; 3 Michelin-starred De Librije co-owner and author Therese Boer and Reed Business Publications Ronald Huiskamp, among others.

The stylish 5 x 7 hardcover format travels well but is also elegant enough to present as a gift. Featured restaurants and the corporate gift buyer have the option of customizing the cover with their name and logo.
