They made a gravy mistake.
Among the city’s chicest dining establishments bizarrely chose to nickel and cent a New York media officer– over Christmas supper, of all things– after inadvertently marketing the incorrect rate for a Yuletide banquet.
And now the dumbstruck restaurant is entrusted to a taste more bitter than a bad Brussel grow– and his household are stuck without a reservation for the wedding day.

Cranberry sources state the biz manager scheduled a table for 4 at Jean Georges after seeing that the haute haunt had (probably in the spirit of peace and goodwill to all males) tore down the cost of its tasting menu on the 25th.
We’re informed that back in November, the 27-year-old Columbus Circle dining establishment’s site stated its six-course prix fixe– which typically costs $298– would be $258 on Christmas Day, or its ten-course choice would be $318, instead of $398. Not precisely a blue plate unique, however a good touch.

On Wednesday when the twice-Michelin starred dining location sent him an e-mail to verify the table, he discovered that the costs had actually gone back up to the regular rate.
And he canceled the res in a fit of joyful pique when the dining establishment, which the Times when stated in a four-star evaluation “moves like a Mercedes sedan,” informed him that it would not honor the lower rate.
We’re informed a staffer merely stated the marketed rate had actually been an error, and they ‘d be bringing an expense with the typical numbers regardless. (Not, we may venture, the “tranquil” service assured by that exact same evaluation).
When we called the dining establishment, a similarly unaccommodating staffer informed Page Six that they “felt bad” for the household however: “We do not honor any discount rates to anybody.” When we raised the concept that it might be thought about a case of incorrect marketing, he stated: “It’s not incorrect marketing. It was an error.”

The officer informed us the cash isn’t the concern, however the concept.
They stated: “They assured joyful cheer, however in fact provided … dissatisfaction. Errors take place, however they ought to have honored the rate they marketed for weeks rather of leaving restaurants with a swelling of coal in their stockings!”
Now our officer is well and genuinely scrooged, considering that, obviously, all over in the area is now scheduled for Christmas.
