    Virgil's Real Barbecue, Northeast USA
  152 W. 44th Street - (6th Ave.-Broadway) - New York, NY           
In the spring of 1993, Artie Cutler's restaurant empire was booming. After the tremendous success of the first two Carmine's Italian Family Style Restaurants, in Times Square and on the Upper West Side, Artie was researching a new concept. He wanted to open an authentic barbecue restaurant in the heart of Times Square. He soon found the right location at 152 West 44th Street and, with his management team, set out on a journey through the back roads of Tennessee, Kentucky, the Carolinas, Missouri, and Texas, sampling the best regional barbecue they could find: the product had to be of top quality and had to offer the kind of great value that had become the core value of Alicart Restaurant Group.

  890 Seventh Ave. - (56th Street) - New York, NY

The fusion of the two coasts is present both in this grand café's interior design and its menu. The centerpiece of the restaurant is the fabulous dancing shrimp, sushi and raw bar - bookended by two giant bronze dancing shrimp sculptures specially crafted in Italy.
