"Baldwin, the kind of ingredient-loving chef who lights up when he gets a particularly excellent delivery of mushrooms or spring onions, has also been known to set up a grill for impromptu sidewalk parties whenever he gets fish - he's a keen fisherman - that excites him."
"Amant now encompasses five buildings, one of which - around the corner from an ice-cream-truck garage, in a former takeout-container warehouse - is the home of Baldwin's second restaurant, Zoli, which opened this week."

Ned Baldwin opened Houseman in Hudson Square over a decade ago, drawing inspiration from his time at Prune. The restaurant has become a favorite for family dinners and regulars, showcasing Baldwin's passion for quality ingredients. He often hosts sidewalk parties when he receives exciting fish deliveries. Baldwin's second restaurant, Zoli, recently opened near Amant, a space dedicated to supporting artists. Zoli allows Baldwin to explore his vision of 'museum food,' catering to the artistic community.
