Former Hotel Griffou and 5 & Diamond chef David Santos is the latest toque to hop on the supper club train. His new venture is dubbed Um Segredo, which means “a secret” in Portuguese. As you’d guess, Santos will fix a Portuguese-leaning menu for the first dinner series, happening November 4 and 5, and 10 and 11, at the chef’s Roosevelt Island apartment. Each night is capped at eight guests, it’s a $75 cash donation, and dinners are BYOB. See the seven-course menu below and e-mail umsegredo12@gmail.com to make reservations.
