If you're in the Harlem area, you definitely want to celebrate Swedish Midsummer with our Chef Marcus Samuelsson on June 24th.
Come join us at Red Rooster Harlem on Friday, June 24th, to celebrate Swedish Midsummer! We will be serving a special prix fixe dinner that features Swedish-inspired dishes. In addition to delicious food, the meal will feature a special cocktail for the occasion. Toast the longest days of the year with a Midnight Sun cocktail, which combines grapefruit- and lemongrass-infused vodka with Campari and fresh grapefruit juice.
The menu is Red Rooster’s take on classic Midsummer celebrations. Our Gravlax on Pumpernickel Bread with Avocado will start the meal with a Midnight Sun cocktail. The second course will be Helga’s Meatballs with Lingonberries and Mashed Potatoes with Pickled Cucumbers served with beer.
And for dessert there will be a delicious Strawberry Rhubarb Pie with Lemon Meringue, perfect for a summer night in our new outdoor seating space.
The menu will cost $45, and we will be serving it from 5:30pm until 10:30pm. For reservations, call Red Rooster at 212-792-9001.

Save The Ocean, Eat A Squid
A note from our Chef Chris Cosentino:
To start this off, I don’t like going on boats anymore, which is ironic since I grew up on boats, sailing, fishing and working lobster boats in New England. About 10 years ago I was in a boating accident that makes me second guess being out there that far on a little boat in the big sea. But this was the opportunity for me to catch the big nasty giant squid, so I was in. What an adventure it was I caught the big one for the day at 75lb and 45 minutes of fighting to bring the squid in I got my monster. Click here to read the story published in Men's Journal this May, and yes I barf!
