Marcus Samuelsson, the acclaimed chef behind Red Rooster Harlem and Streetbird in Manhattan, is set to open his all-day restaurant on November 16 in the newly renovated Hahne & Co. building in Newark.

The restaurant, dubbed Marcus B&P ("back pocket") riffs on American and Mediterranean classics utilizing local ingredients. The space features an expansive open kitchen complete with a wood-fired brick oven as well as a rotating selection of art from local New Jersey artists.
