Jose Andres Unveils His Latest Hudson Yards Project

"José Andrés has flipped Leña inside Mercado Little Spain at 10 Hudson Yards, at Tenth Avenue, into Txula Steak, a Basque-style steakhouse named for Txuletón, a 60-day aged rib-eye. The menu showcases the work of the Spanish charcoal oven. The flip is part of the same Hudson Yards overhaul that brought Oyamel next door this spring in the former Spanish Diner space."

"Txula replaces Andrés's restaurant Leña, open since 2019. The new room leans harder into the Basque asador idea, rather than Leña's broader Iberian grill format. Look for tuna gildas, foie gras on grilled bread, suckling pig, and Spanish lamb, on the menu.There's also a Txuleburger, and a Martina Hayworth, a Spanish twist on a martini. Dinner is open from 5 to 10 p.m. daily; lunch starts Monday, October 13."

"It's opening day for Good Days, a seasonal restaurant and raw bar in Williamsburg run by culinary couple Stephany Burgos and Amanda Norton (South 6th Street, Brooklyn). The menu kicks off with fontina croquettes, shrimp cocktail, hamachi crudo, and bread service from family-owned North Side Bakery, followed by mains like pan-seared duck, swordfish Milanesa, and a burger built with house-made remoulade. A cozy bar up front serving sesame oil-washed tequilas, amaro, and natural wines joins a back patio under the Williamsburg Bridge."
