"Book a dinner with Chef Ryan Smith and you’re in for an experience, not just a meal. As the executive chef at New York Vintners, Chef Ryan runs his own dining room where food and wine are components in what he calls an alternative-dining experience. He has teamed up with actors and artists to fully immerse his guests in themes ranging from Downtown Abbey dinners to Game of Thrones feasts. Most people would describe Chef Ryan’s cooking and menu creation as fluid. He doesn’t have one style or one technique that encompasses his culinary identity. Instead, he just likes to create balance in his dishes, whether it’s crunchy and creamy or sweet and salty. One thing is for certain in his cooking though: fresh ingredients are key. Nothing beats farm fresh produce from the farmers’ market up the street, so he advises New Yorkers to take advantage of their city’s outdoor markets. As for Chef Ryan’s favorite dish? There’s nothing like a spicy curry with a good, sweet Riesling. Count us in." New York Moves Magazine
