The dining room at the Broadview Hotel has gotten a menu makeover courtesy of chef Richard Singh, who comes to the Civic by way of Bosk at the Shangri-La hotel and, before that, London’s Fat Duck and New York’s Per Se. Singh’s new menu features dry-aged rib-eye steaks, pork chops and seared Atlantic salmon. Weekend brunch brings to the table breakfast burritos, shakshuka and avocado toast. And coming soon: family-style Sunday roasts. Here’s a look at some of the new dishes and drinks.
