There isn’t a watered-down vodka cranberry in sight at Café ArtScience, a chic, all-white sensory laboratory-meets-café devoted to creating concepts of scientific, futuristic French and American libations and fare. Innovation glitters in ArtScience’s mixology: you are to inhale the illustrious Whaftiki, a rum concoction served with vaporized rum, before the rest of the clarified lime, burnt cinnamon, and mango liquid is poured. Chef Patrick Campbell’s food program integrates local and seasonal ingredients into meticulous dishes like Hudson Valley foie gras terrine and a salad of native beets and brûléed black mission fig with toasted walnuts and stilton custard.
