Starlight Room Gets a New Bartender: Joel Teitelbaum

Up and coming bar star Joel Teitelbaum, who most recently did a stint as the opening bar manager at Zero Zero, has signed on to be the new man behind the revamped Harry Denton’s Starlight Room. Kimpton Restaurants brings us the news today, in connection with the renovations happening at the top-floor lounge at the Sir Francis Drake Hotel. The place has been closed since July 18, and will reopen with a new look and concept — as well as a new cocktail program from Teitelbaum — in early September. [Grub Street]
