Editorial Review

Eighties warhorse still going strong. Feel like you're living a page from Bonfire of the Vanities, spy on Woody Allen and Ronald Lauder digging into classic northern Italian. Host of pastas, liver and veal chops, zuppe di pesce with saffron and lobster. Dark wood, white tablecloths, shelves full of well-selected wine. Volumes run loud, but on the plus side you can skip DVRing Nip/Tuck and just enjoy the serious work that adorns the tables here instead.
