Red Kitchen & Bar Celebrates Official Grand Opening
ST. LOUIS, MO, (SLFP.com), September 13, 2009 - RED Kitchen & Bar, a new downtown restaurant and nightspot in the newly renovated Hyatt Regency St. Louis Riverfront, introduced its new executive chef at its grand opening ribbon cutting and celebration, Thursday, September 10. Jim Cloar, president and CEO of the Downtown St. Louis Partnership joined Hyatt's director of food and beverage, Edan Ballantine, in cutting the ribbon and officially opening downtown's newest dining hot spot.
The casual-yet-elegant American grille is located in the grand lobby of the hotel, formerly known as the Adam's Mark, which just completed a $63 million facelift as part of its conversion to the Hyatt Regency brand.
Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner, RED's dinner menu focuses on small plates, creative cocktails, wines by the glass and a selection of RED specialties from its in-house smoker and pizza oven. RED also features a farmer's market lunch buffet complete with an extensive salad bar featuring fresh, seasonal produce, artisanal cheeses, soups, desserts and an array of pasta ingredients selected by the guest and prepared by RED's chefs. The buffet is available Monday - Friday from 11:30 a.m.-2 p.m. for just $9.95. A magnificent curved bar serves as the focal point of the restaurant and welcomes guests entering the lobby.
"RED is a unique, new dining option for people visiting, living or working in downtown St. Louis, where they can enjoy creative cuisine and fine wine in a contemporary and stylish, yet comfortable atmosphere," stated Hyatt's director of food and beverage, Edan Ballantine, who designed RED's menu.
At the helm of the RED kitchen is Executive Chef Michael Barber, who most recently served as executive chef at the Hyatt Regency Washington on Capitol Hill. He began his career with Hyatt in 1999 and has also worked at the Hyatt Regency Orlando International Airport, Hyatt Regency Dallas, Hyatt Regency DFW and Hyatt Regency Atlanta. Barber graduated from the Culinary Institute of America.
RED is one of three new restaurants in the luxurious new Hyatt Regency St. Louis Riverfront, also including Ruth's Chris Steak House and Brewhouse, a casual pub and sports bar. The hotel is directly across from the Gateway Arch and the picturesque St. Louis riverfront and features 910 newly designed rooms; a Starbucks; a 24-hr StayFit@Hyatt health club and 83,000 square feet of meeting space, including an 18th-floor terrace with breathtaking views of the famed Gateway Arch.
