About
Michael Lomonaco is an American chef, restaurateur, and television personality. He is known as the chef/director for Windows on the World, the restaurant located atop the North Tower of the World Trade Center. The restaurant was destroyed in the September 11 attacks, and all of the staff members who were working in the restaurant at the time of the attack died. Lomonaco survived because he was in the tower's lobby during the attacks and was then evacuated from the building. He later opened Porter House New York, which was named by Esquire one of America's Best New Restaurants in October 2006.
