From romantic spots like Le Bernardin to beloved holes-in-the-wall like
Corner Bistro, John Donohue renders people's favorite restaurants in a
manner that captures the emotional pull a certain place can have on the
hearts of New Yorkers. All the Restaurants in New York is a collection
of these drawings, characterized by their appealingly loose and gently
distorted lines. These transportive images are intentionally spare,
leaving the viewer room to layer on their own meaning and draw
connections to their own memories of a place, of a time, of an
atmosphere. Featuring an eclectic mix of 100 restaurants--from Minetta
Tavern to Frankies 457 and River Café--this charming collection of
drawings is accompanied by interviews with the owners, chefs, and loyal
patrons of these much-loved restaurants.
