Some year’s I include Sepia in my 50, other years it has been adjacent sister property Proxi. I admire both, but in the interest of sharing the love among other restaurants, I switch off. This is Sepia’s year. It’s the more relaxed, more refined restaurant of the two, and executive chef Andrew Zimmerman’s food offers a complexity that he pointedly avoids at Proxi. That’s probably also true of the imaginative desserts by Sarah Mispagel who, like Zimmerman, oversees both operations. Read Phil Vettel’s full review of Sepia here.
