, and the culinary director and partner chef for this newest venture is Stan Rodriques of Nick and Sam’s, Sixty Vines, Whiskey Cake and Neighborhood Services.

We got the ball rolling with a couple of craft cocktails, a Midtown and a Filthy Martini. The midtown was mixed with Redemption rye, dry vermouth and amoro and was attractively presented in a Champagne coupe with a cherry. The filthy martini had the requisite olive brine as well as a pair of bacon and bleu cheese-stuffed olives.Our starter was the French onion dip: a creamy green onion concoction served with porcini potato chips.
The pasta dishes are available in both full and half orders, an option we love since it allows us to try more things on the menu. We went with a half order of Italian sausage rigatoni and a bowl of mushroom bisque to sate the mushroom craving we now had due to the porcini chip tease.Hank Vaughn
