Two Bloomingdale powerhouses–the Red Hen and neighboring pub Boundary Stone–have teamed up for Shaw's hottest new restaurant: All-Purpose. Chef Michael Friedman tapped into his Jersey/Italian-American roots for the 90-seat eatery, whose menu centers around pizzas, house-made charcuterie, and riffs on red sauce classics like eggplant parm and sweetbreads "marsala" with mushrooms and bacon.
"The menu is what I want to eat when it's my day off," says Friedman. "When I opened Red Hen it was the same idea—a joint where my buddy in the restaurant industry wants to come."
