Mondrian New York’s new restaurant is now slated to open Nov. 15, according to the New York Times, and has been generating buzz with the hiring of a “Top Chef” reality competition alum, Sam Talbot. The 9 Crosby Street hotel restaurant had planned to open in late 2009 but faced delays, along with the Mondrian itself. Talbot, who is known for his involvement with the famed Montauk Surf Lodge, will return out east for one more summer there as executive chef. [Hotel Chatter via NYT]
