Freeman's - New York, NY

The idea of the restaurant was to make a rugged clandestine colonial American tavern. The cuisine was also imagined to be early American: simple, rustic, and inspired by old-world traditions.

In the fall of 2004, Taavo Somer and William Tigertt happened upon a perfect, cozy space at the end of an unused alley off the Bowery. Freeman restaurant was born.
