With Beautiful Vistas Overlooking the Hudson, we are a perfect location for a spectacular Rehearsal Dinner or a very special Private Party.
French pastry chef Maxime Ollivier, previ- ously production manager at Ladurée in Paris, will make pastries and other sweets for the original 550 square-foot-space that has been remade into a patisserie and choco- late bar.
Ron Blacks (181 Mamaroneck Ave, White Plains 914-358-5811; ronblacks.com) will intro- duce thin-crust pizzas: pizza margarita, Buffalo chicken, blue cheese and bacon, plus a pizza of the day ($10-$12 for a 10- inch pie).
