Eleven Madison Park, which took top honors on Restaurant’s 2017 World’s Best Restaurants list, may have shuttered its door in June for renovations (don’t worry, it’ll be back by the fall), but you can get chef Daniel Humm’s megawatt eats down near sunnier shores—East Hampton, to be exact—for the summer. The casual pop-up serves à la carte, seafood-heavy fare like poached lobster and ginger-laced striped bass in its main dining room, open only to American Express cardholders. However, if you’re not part of the plastic elite, you can always head to the covered back patio for flatbreads (corn, clam, zucchini), sandwiches (lobster rolls, the famed black-truffle Humm dog from the NoMad) and summery cocktails from beverage director Leo Robitschek, divided into Classics, Sunrise and Sunset sections. To really hammer in summer-casual vibes, the lawn is dotted with picnic tables and outdoor games, including corn hole and pétanque.
