Freemans Sporting Club
Mon.1.16.06
Everyone's favorite "hidden gem" of a restaurant Freeman's has cunningly expanded into a showroom/game room/bespoke tailor's space upstairs and around the corner on Chrystie. Named Freeman's Sporting Club, the space is designed in the old-world vein of the restaurant with a vintage pool table, and designer Taavo Somer creating "made-to-measure" suits of British wool.
The opening event felt more like a housewarming party than publicity event, as we sipped bourbon, stroked stuffed squirrels, browsed t-shirts racks, and ate several handfuls of oily Italian cold-cuts in the rustic-chic loft. Photos after jump.
