HORSE OF A DIFFERENT COLOR
HOW THIS CHEF’S STEAKHOUSE COLLECTION FOUND ITS NAME, PLUS A REFRESHING SUMMER READY SALAD PEPPERED WITH FLAVOR, ANTIOXIDANTS, AND COLOR. People often ask me why I named my steakhouses Red Horse. I was visiting my oldest son at his home in New Hope, Pennsylvania. It was the early days of the pandemic when all the panic was setting in. Listen, as a chef it’s hard to put the fire out. So, one way I relax and unwind is by going to art galleries. I saw this painting of a horse by Tuan Tran called Red Horse. I loved it. It inspired me. I bought it to add to my collection. Then, it hit me, that’s going to be my next restaurant, Red Horse. I have three modern-day steakhouses called Red Horse now. Two are in New Jersey, the flagship in Rumson and my newest in Bernardsville. The third is in White Plains, New York.
