Editorial Review
19th century family mansion joins the 21st with striking urbanity, sustainable eco-cuisine. Culinary elocution runs bases on color, flavor and texture, hits home run with photogenic flare. Well-thought entrées are fresh and real; beautifully unobtrusive. Pasta a mano equals pillowy gnocchi and beyond; elegant but restrained desserts stand out. Pairs fabulously with prosecco. Table three wears gold lamé heels, table four seats accomplished, hairdone couples pushing sixty. Decorators vogue contrast downplays the venue's newbie status.
