The Duane Street Hotel is open, and its restaurant 'beca is now doing breakfast and lunch. A call to the hotel confirms that dinner service at the 40-seat lobby restaurant is still in the works.

In the meantime, the lunch menu is now up on the hotel website, and it looks decent. Some highlights:

Rocket with Fennel & Pomergrantes $10
Kobe Burger with Caramelized Onions, Goat Cheese & Rosemary Fries $16
Skirt Steak with Rocket & Rosemary Fries $17
Chocolate Terrine with Crème Anglaise & Pistachios $10
Smoothies: Mango, Lime & Ginger $6

But here's the thing: It's written for British tourists. No seriously. No one calls arugula "rocket" in the States. And smoothies? Who drinks smoothies for lunch?
