This sleek, sexy room inside the Mercer Hotel is the brainchild of star chef Jean- Georges Vongerichten. Here he practices his talent for comfort food, albeit the most luxe, delectable, gourmet kind you’ll ever taste. The menu includes several kinds of pizzas topped with ingredients like black truffle and fontina cheese, and every entrée can be accompanied by sides like unctuous macaroni or corn pudding.
