, at 150 W. 30th Street, between Seventh and Sixth avenues. The massive three-floor restaurant is Lee’s largest and most personal showcase yet. It opens Tuesday, July 18. Kevin Doherty, also behind bars Tara Rose and Bosco, and Rehan Alam, of the Red Lion and the Ellington, are co-owners of the operation and sought out Lee to lead the kitchen.
Alligator Pear, a nickname for the avocado, does also serve alligator. “It’s the chicken of the swamp,” Lee says. He’s on a mission to get New Yorkers to like the swamp meat with bite-sized poppers that come with a Thousand Island sauce. It’s sourced from an alligator farm in Louisiana. Lee’s roots run through the menu, dishes he worked on through pop-ups gearing up for the launch at places like Williamsburg wine bar Sauced and Bushwick Vietnamese Mexican restaurant Falansai. There’s a Creole-style mac and cheese, black-eyed pea hummus, char-broiled oysters, as well as a blue cornmeal breaded catfish with cabbage slaw and pickles, and gumbo.
Of course, what would be a love letter to New Orleans without the requisite beignets? At Alligator Pear, they’re in the style of Café Du Monde’s, presented with powdered sugar in a paper bag.
