Timberlake wants to feed Manhattan



Justin Timberlake is set to open a new Italian restaurant in midtown Manhattan called Destino's. The new spot opens it's doors on February 9. Destino's offers 100-plus seats and a warm rustic atmosphere.

"This is not a club, this is not a bar, this isn't a nightclub," Destino's rep Lizzie Grubman said. "This is a real restaurant."

The menu and wine list are still being worked out by head chef Mario Curko (formerly of Rao's) Curko is best known for his authentic and old-fashioned Italian dishes such as spaghetti carbonara, veal gnocchi, chicken scarpariello, steak pizzaiola and baccala...oh yeah

It's so rare a celebrity opens a high-profile restaurant in Midtown Manhattan.
