You've really got to love bite-sized Italian delights wrapped in convenient, if neutral-tasting packages. So, since you've got to, this spot's for you.

It's Friday, and you've got Friday things to do. Same here. But before we part ways for the weekend, we've got one thing that could fit quite perfectly into those plans of yours...

Right in time for fall, the Italian-American Sunday dinner pop-up at The Nomad Bar is back. In case you missed it last year, Mamma Guidara's is a family-style four-course meal that pays homage to the now-defunct NYC institution that was Mamma Leone's. You can find it at the NoMad Bar every Sunday—hard to miss a full on Italian feast complete with red
This weekend, widely acclaimed Icelandic Chef Viktor Örn Andrésson will be joining Chef Andrew Whitcomb and the team at Norman in creating two distinctive four-course tasting menus. Viktor comes to us from Lava, a stunning Icelandic restaurant built into the cliffs overlooking a devastatingly beautiful lagoon. He's trading that all for Greenpoint for but
Every month this Fall, Bon Appètit and Reynard (the restaurant on the ground floor of Wythe Hotel) will team up with a restaurant on the West Coast for a dinner to celebrate the release of their respective cookbooks.
