Off the Menu: Opening

Kurt Gutenbrunner, the chef and owner of Wallsé in the West Village, has crossed the river to open a Viennese-style bistro in Harrison, N.J., a suburb of Newark. He’s partnering with David Barry, who also invested in the Standard East Village in Manhattan and the Chiltern Firehouse in London. Velvet, leather, marble and tile are used in the design, which echoes the Secessionists, Jugendstil and Josef Hoffmann. The menu features an Austrian flatbread with bacon and onions, Berlin currywurst, open-faced Viennese sandwiches, slow-roasted beets with Alpine cheese, classic wiener schnitzel, spaetzle, and apple strudel. Viennese-style coffees are served. (Opens Saturday)
