Evan Hanczor, right, with George Weld. The latter is the founder of restaurant Egg in Brooklyn, where Hanczor works since 2009. Together they turned it into a point of reference for breakfast, in New York and beyond
After Mark Ladner of Del Posto in New York, the rich programme of the temporary restaurant opened in Milan for Expo by the three partners of the USA Pavilion (the Department of State, the James Beard Foundation and the International Culinary Center) of which Paolo Marchi wrote here, hosted another protagonist in the Big Apple’s culinary scene. Evan Hanczor arrived in NYC in 2009, from Florida, and met George Weld, patron of Egg. This restaurant in Brooklyn is dedicated to Southern cuisine and most of all to breakfast. It is Weld who explains the inspiration that led to the birth of this place: «I wanted a restaurant that would take the concept of breakfast seriously. And there was another issue too. For years I had been obsessed by your cooking. I then told myself that my culinary culture was just as rich and that I had to take Southern cuisine seriously».
