BAR Boulud will soon have a neighboring kissing cousin a French motivated, grill-themed restaurant that Daniel Boulud plans to open this winter at the spot of Broadway and 64th Street? Among additional things, the 4,000-square-foot eatery will possess a nice, big bar intended for drinking unlike Bar Boulud, which for all its wine-and charcuterie pleasures, has no bar.

Boulud’s spokeswoman, Georgette Farkas, says the new place will have a grilling impression with a little bit of a strong accent, a partly open kitchen and Mediterranean and other influences. Thomas Schlesser who produced the looks for Bar Boulud and DBGB will design the 110-seat dining room, a 24-seat lounge and a 16-stool bar.

The restaurant isn’t named yet. But by any name, the sixth Manhattan venue from one of the world’s supreme chefs marks another advance for the eating scene in Lincoln Square, the emerging corridor across Broadway north of Columbus Circle to 72nd Street.

Boulud formerly considered expanding Bar Boulud into the side street portion of the former bank space next door. But he just leased the area as well, and decided to launch an entirely new restaurant facing Lincoln Center’s stunning, reborn plaza and cascade.

He isn’t alone. In September, Patina Restaurant Group is launching a $20 million buffet headed by former Per Se executive chef Jonathan Benno on the Lincoln Center campus itself, tucked under the new lofty lawn on the North Plaza.
