"The economy is improving," Jack¹ Sinanaj, the owner of Empire Steak House, said. "People come ready to spend the money."

 

The five-course menu begins with two pounds of Osetra caviar and a salad with poached（清蒸的，水煮的） pears, goat cheese and macadamia nuts（澳洲坚果）.

 

The next course features wine and a lemon sorbet, while the main course is a Kobe steak and a South African lobster² tail with black truffle（松露，块菌）, the New York Post reported.

 

The dinner is served with a 2010 bottle of Chateau³ Lafite Rothschild.

 

Dessert is a three-layer chocolate torte that's served with cognac pudding.

 

"Especially for New Year's Eve, people want to do something special -- to celebrate with some of the best food and wine," Sinanaj said.
