Inside Tivoli & LeeNew Lee Circle Restaurant Offers Nods to Circle's Past, Modern Cuisine Hotel Modern gets another update as southern and contemporary cuisines converge at their new hotel restaurant, Tivoli & Lee.
Hotel Modern Opens Upscale Pop-Up, "Why Not?" The Hotel Modern (Lee Circle, 936 St. Charles) is combining two of the city’s favorite food trends, pop-up restaurants and buying local. Chef Mike Nirenberg and Creative Director James Stuart began service at their seasonal pop-up yesterday, with dinner and lunch service in the former Tamarind Restaurant space. Pennington's Pressure Point: Citizen Cleans Spray-Painted Civil War Statues by Shay Sokol When Roy Pennington, 56, heard that three city monuments were vandalized this week, he immediately thought about the hundred thousand people coming in for Final Four weekend. “I was angry. People will see this, our city defaced. I don’t think so. Not if I can help it,” said Pennington, the owner of Hi-Pressure Cleaning Systems in Houma and Harvey. Full CircleAfter a Year of Renovations, Circle Bar Roars Back to Life This Weekend After closing more than a year ago for a month-long renovation, the Circle Bar will finally reopen this weekend, marking the return of one the city’s most raucous dives. Hotel Modern, Up CloseRenovated Lee Circle Hotel's Restaurant and Lounge Open This Weekend WAREHOUSE DISTRICT - If you’re planning a stay at the Hotel Modern, be sure to pack your fancy pants. The newly renovated and rechristened hotel brings boutique luxury to the old Lee Circle YMCA. With the opening of the adjacent restaurant, Tamarind, and lounge Bellocq, Saturday, Dec. 16, the new digs also add to the already booming upscale dining scene of the Warehouse District. Hotel Le Cirque Goes Modern Get your last round of being distracted while driving past the pretty colors now. The towering rainbow that lights up the Lee Circle night is set to go monchrome this fall. Hotel Le Cirque is set to reopen as The Hotel Modern, the brainchild of new owner, European hotelier Klaus Ortlieb. Showing this decade's belief that one bright color is enough, the new light shining off the building will be of an orange-yellow tone. And there are other renovations in the $7 million project, too.
