The much-anticipated cookbook from the Michelin–starred Brooklyn restaurant from chef Nick Curtola, LCD Soundsystem's James Murphy, and James Beard Award–winning natural wine pioneer Justin Chearno
In 2014, four friends with practically zero restaurant experience between them naively decided to open a restaurant in New York City. They called the place The Four Horsemen, and they hired a largely unknown chef, Nick Curtola, to lead its tiny kitchen.
Even though they did almost everything wrong at the start, The Four Horsemen now has a Michelin star, a waiting list for tables seven nights a week, and a James Beard Award for the best wine program in the United States.
In his debut cookbook, Curtola explains his approach to simplicity with warmth, clarity, and more than 100 recipes. Meanwhile, natural wine pioneer Justin Chearno and his fellow horsemen Randy Moon, Christina Topsøe, and James Murphy share the story of the restaurant, along with suggestions related to a subject on which they were experts years before they built the place: how to sit around a table and have a bit of fun. Welcome to The Four Horsemen.
