NEW YORK CITY-The city with a dazzling array of restaurants just added two more to an already impressive list. Thomas Keller and Jean-Georges Vongerichten have chosen AOL Time Warner Center as home for two new dining establishments.

Thomas Keller will open a fine dining restaurant that continues the tradition established by The French Laundry, his internationally renowned restaurant in California’s Napa Valley. Keller is the first chef to win consecutive “Best Chef” awards from the James Beard Foundation.

Jean-Georges Vongerichten will open a world-class steakhouse in the new dining complex. He is the chef and owner of a number of New York City culinary meccas, including JoJo, Vong, Jean-Georges and Mercer Kitchen. The James Beard Foundation honored him in 1998 with awards for Best New Restaurant and Outstanding Chef for his four-star restaurant Jean-Georges. He is the first chef to receive both of those awards in the same year. Vongerichten also owns restaurants in London, Paris, Hong Kong and Chicago.
